Lukas Wigflex Steps Down from Peep Festival Amid Abuse Allegations

A Earthquake in the Underground Scene

The Spanish and international techno community is in shock. Lukas Wigflex, a recognized figure in the hard techno and schranz landscape, has announced his withdrawal from Peep Festival and the cancellation of all his gigs following public abuse allegations.

The allegations were published in a Substack newsletter by his ex-partner and former business associate, revealing details that have sent shockwaves throughout the entire industry. This is not a mere media gesture: we're facing a direct response to serious accusations that challenge fundamental values within our underground community.

The Responsibility That Defines Our Movement

At Over Techno, we've spent years documenting the evolution of the hard techno, industrial, and rave scene. We know this culture is built on mutual respect, consent, and dancefloor safety. The allegations against Wigflex are not club gossip: they are public testimonies from a victim who chose to speak out.

His withdrawal, though overdue, sets an important precedent. The underground scene categorically rejects any form of abuse. No records, success, or recognition justify harming another person.

The Time to Rethink Safety

This incident reminds us why it's crucial to report, listen, and act. The techno community is our collective responsibility. Festivals, promoters, and DJs must prioritize safety policies, anonymous reporting channels, and victim support.

As we process what has happened, the scene continues. There are events, committed artists, and safe spaces where music remains liberating, honest, and inclusive.
