 Acid Klaus, the new collaborative solo project from songwriterproducer and Northern England cult legend, Adrian Flanagan (The Moonlandingz, International Teachers of Pop, Eccentronic Research Council and lots more), announces his debut concept album, coproduced with his music partner in the ERC, Dean Honer, titled ‘StepOn My Travelator: The Imagined Career Trajectory of Superstar DJ & Dance-Pop Producer, Melvin Harris’, released on Yard Act’s ZENF.C. label.

 The album features contributions from Adrian’s longtime collaboratorsand friends including actress, Maxine Peake, US musician and videodirector, Charlotte Kemp Muhl (Ghost of a Sabertooth Tiger), MariaUzor from Sink Ya Teeth and the Bradford-born pop-noir singer (currently singing in The Specials), Hannah Hu, who is joined on lapsteel guitar on a track by Richard Hawley.

 The album is completed by a whole host of fresh and exciting artists(as well as the aforementioned Lieselot Elzinga) - there’s theenigmatic Queen Bee of the Calder Valley, solo artist BiancaEddleston, who goes under the name Soft Focus, and finally from South Wales (and the current talk of the South London scene), theincredible Welsh language singer songwriter, Cat Rin.

 Flanagan proclaims about the album: “I hereby herald in a masterclass of conceptual brilliance and sonic floor-shaking heroism. A record that is both mocking and hugging in its stance - a solid andweighty brick in the face to the horrid and cod sincere, brat histrionics of the easy-on-the-eye careerist indie minstrel. Where I, an invisible bruised and battered craftsman of high (and low) art for nigh on two decades is finally (and begrudgingly) held aloft like a prize-winningChampion Cock at a village fete whilst a demonicallyfuturist/modernist B-Boy B-Girl group bring the gathered throng, deep,penetrative, body music!”
