i think they are all professional DJs tbh
i'm not being silly but chris is kind of... and international superstar dj type of thing...?
srsly it may be a bit odd for all the people going 'the liberators played my squat in 92' but you want to see the reception they get in latin america and the rest of the world. And everywhere actually. They are headline DJs

yeah i know they had to start somewhere, i was puzzled by saucisson asking what their day jobs were.
Don't remember any of that. The one I was talking about there was so many people in there and only one tiny little door to get in and out. The place was rammed and we were all doing dennis the menace pills. While I rushing my tits off, Beamish was playing a blinding set. I emptied the whole nights worth of smoke from the smoke machine and stuck the strobe on full blast and left it like that. When the smoke cleared the whole place was dancing and no one stopped for the rest of the night.
Thats how I remember it anyway.
ask him questions he'll never expect.

Ah, so their not real brothers...
oops.
I remember thinking, funny that, not just 2 but 3 brothers all doing the same thing
I honestly didnt think you could make a living djing acid techno these days? but perhaps your right to say that a lot of it isnt on my horizon as they play abroad a lot? I know Julian was in brazil for about 5 years. A lot of the parties they do in this country are in small clubs or squats? and I was just speculating that you would need other income earners as well, especially as you get older have kids etc. Chris probably does allright but I am not sure if julian or Aaron make a full time living from it? I shouldnt think they get much income from making music either?
I think my question would also be how do you sustain interest in one fun but basically relatively formulaic genre reliant on the majority of your audience being on drugs over a long time period without getting bored, frutrated or wanting to do something substanitally different? - in actual fact - ask him...and I would genuinely be interested to see the interview if you ever get chance to link back to it.
I've always wondered that too, (about anyone who does the same thing for years basically).

Just looking at Chris Liberators gig list I think I am probably very wrong
But how you keep doing something with that level of repetetive intensity night after night without going bonkers would still be my question though.

to be fair, there's a lot more to Chris's djing these days than formulaic acid techno.
In fact most of the stay up forever lot have quite broad musical tastes, with several of their labels being more electro, house, tech housey as well as the acid techno labels.

cool, you'd be more than welcome, will have to post up when we're doing a good gig and see if we can get an urban crew together for the weekend or somethingFree Spirit i want to come to a northern party this year
lies all lies, I actually mostly just want a quiet life, I just accidentally seem to end up partying for England 51 weekends of the year,,,thats one of the dumbest questions I've seen on this board
my mate put a didgeridoo track out on that label which was bloody awful imo.
put me off listening to anymore of their stuff for quite a while.

I hope Chris Liberator earns decent money as he ought to but it's a good question to be fair lol

sorry but there is just no fucking way i could ask him that! I might as well call him a tosser.
Anyway i don't agree - all of techno is formulaic, so either ask that qustion just about any DJ there is, or its not relevant. They have changed the London Techno sound a lot actually, and acid lines were kept at bay for quite a while. They might have crept back but i think a lot of the DJ's realised how much acid lines take away from decent techno drum sounds...
As for do they make living, yes i can ask that, and will. Again, why ask it of them tho - ask it of any DJ or promoter.
I think it will be far more interesting to ask about politics tbh
