LECKEN

Lecken Lovers, let’s get temperamental! 

As we enter our 10th year, we invite you all to observe the Lecken temperament in the wild. 

Feathers fluffed, pupils aroused, 

this valiant tribe is drawn to bass frequencies 

and the faint musk of collective possibility. 

Not merely a party animal; Lecken 

is a social mammal, 

operating in elaborate webs, 

bound together by ritualised dancing, 

mutual grooming and unspeakable encounters. 

Observe how cisgays, dykes, twinks, transsexuals, 

they/thems and the occasional Marxist Italian huddle together 

in playful piles, forming improbable alliances. 

This is coalition-building at its most primal. 

Some members drift away, others return year after year, 

yet others are remembered only as myth. 

Still, the temperament endures. 

A temporary home, yes

—but one to which this species remains fiercely drawn, 

as if serving an undeniable drive. 

As the sun rises, we are reminded: 

in rave, kinship depends on how well you 

dance together till the very end.

On February 27, we spread our wings again across two floors in our trusted Kreuzwerk: a Rave Room for libidinal acceleration & a more suave Play Pit for sonic and somatic entrancing. 

Under the dim lights, we celebrate a Lecken decade.
