Chris Liberator, champion of the free party scene, plays Unit Nine for 'The Anti Valentines Ball', marking 18 years of Exposure and Northern Sounds.
Chris Liberator is playing Unit Nine in Milton Keynes on Friday 12 February 2027, with Hang The DJs on the bill alongside him. The night is part of 'The Anti Valentines Ball', which returns to Unit Nine to mark 18 years of Exposure and Northern Sounds.
If you've come across Liberator's name before, it's probably in the context of the free party scene, which he calls himself the self-styled champion of. He's spent years railing against the corporate mentality he sees in modern dance music, a stance he traces back to his anarcho-punk background. He says he's happiest playing at squat parties, and that's the energy he brings to the booth — dance music that doesn't forget where it came from.
Over the years he's run several of his own labels, including Cluster and Stay Up Forever, and put out hundreds of records. Among them are two F*ing Aving It compilations, which give you a good sense of the sound he's known for. It's a long track record, and the set at Unit Nine will be a part of that.
