Can you dance, suckers? I say the future is ours... if you can dance!
Now look what we have here before us. We got ELECTRO sitting next to NEW WAVE. We've got DISCO right by TECHNO. Nobody is wasting nobody. That... is a miracle. And miracles is the way things ought to be.
Club Pony takes place every second Friday at DQ in Sheffield plus random events elsewhere. We got bands (sometimes). We got dj's (all times). The price on the door is 5 english pounds.
Can you dig it?

The launch of
the first in history man-made sputnik was held on 4th October 1957.
This day is considered to be the beginning of the mankind space era. The first
man-made sputnik was placed into orbit by a rocket vehicle from Baikonur
spaceport. A radio beacon was installed on a board of sputnik for monitoring
the flight and carrying out an investigation.

Hi CLUB PONY, thanks for continuing to be a friend of Electroflex.
Some important news!
Electroflex have been back in the studio following a break from gigging and recording with new track ‘Computer Virus’.
This is the first of a series of new releases for 2009, and what better day to start on than Liz’s Birthday!
‘Computer Virus’ is a live favourite. Anyone forced to work with computers will know how evil they are and this track is Electroflex’s response to Kraftwerk’s ‘Its More Fun to Compute’. It is a bouncy number with a serious bassline, sing-along chorus and a selection of curious samples.
The track will only be up on Myspace in full for a short time. Alternatively, visit our Facebook and iLike pages where you can add the song to you playlists
