Hi The New Jerusalem, 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
In a perf. ranging from the just-plain-odd to the out-and-out magisterial, the Artist Formerly Know As... delivered a rendition of (among other things) 'GMTV Beachbodybikinidiet' with irony sufficiently acidic to dissolve all known metals except Platinum (and heavy, when played by a decent band)
OUT NOW on Idiosyncratics Records : Phil Maggi - Blue Fields in Paramount CD
..Blue Fields in Paramount is a very personal and fascinating opus, a beautiful introduction to the style of this talented artist, that could be qualified as 'dark psychedelia for daydream believers'. It has been mastered by James Plotkin (Khlyst, Khanate, Old, Phantom) and is out now as a stricly limited to 300 copies ekopack edition with a fantastic artwork by czech artist Jan Karpisek...
'In Rainbows' fully equal, IMHO, to 'Kid A' and 'The Bends,' if not better. Really pleased to get Long Lost Frank on board for 3rd Dec, which is shaping up to be seriously tasty. And 21st could well be mega. Added to which, your and Ross' do, Simon Lee seems well set on getting 'Foot in the Door' off the ground again and Louis reckons there's possibilities back at the Red Lion (open again under new management - the bloke who used to do the Clifden). 2009 could be really jolly good.
I'm listening to 'In Rainbows,' and track eight begins with the words 'I don't want to be your friend; I just want to be your lover.' So I guess it must be a love song, only, a while later, we hear:
'The infrastrucure will collapse...'
Hmmm... Should I buck the trend of how people respond to Radiohead and be ecstatic to discover that my chat-up lines are not, after all, the shittest on the planet? Or should I accept that Mr Yorke is so dead deep that I must have missed the point here?
indeed you were the sex too my friend, that radio was a stroke of genius, people were talking about that for hours. your a sexy bewilderbeast. we must celebrate our moral victory sometime.
Next job: dont fuck with the jesus 3. working title: dont fuck with the drummer from def leppard. i have a few poster ideas...but all in good time.
