By now, the Flex, in clubland terms, is an institution. An underground giant with over 10 years of experience showcasing body moving electronic music, it shows no signs of stopping.

Located along the the Danube, this once squatters and alterna-cats paradise, has matured into slick and well run club. An incredible sound-system, which has been rumoured as being one of the best in Europe.

One cannot talk about Flex without listing off some of its legacies: “the original” Dubclub on Mondays (Suga B, Gumix, Sweet Susi and the whole G-stone gang), Crazy on Tuesdays, London Calling indie party, drum & bass; regular visits by Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig, Patrick Pulsinger, DJ Hell, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Electric Indigo and Female Pressure.

The new Flex Cafe extension is clean and modern, though some people miss the old bench and beer hang outs. And there are a hundred other things (Mondays Sexual Healing, Flex Cafe DJs – Gumix, Picky Bitch, Matt Modny, Felix the Houserat) – that may yet keep Flex “cool” well into the future. Regardless, the Flex is still massive and well worth a visit.
