ACID KLAUS NIGHTCLUB MARILYN (ROOM 1)

Acid Klaus, the collaborative project of Adrian Flanagan, is an exciting endevour which has dropped its latest single, ‘Nightclub Marilyn (Room 1)’. It’s an experimental track that lets an uber-80s synth sound to blend with East-Coast hip-hop, before making room for the lead vocal of Lieslot Elzinga. His album, Step On My Travelator: The Imagined Career Trajectory of Superstar DJ & Dance-Pop Producer, Melvin Harris, drops on November 18th, 2022 and contains the full version of this track. “The album version of the single is an eight-and-a-half minute epic called ‘The Three Rooms of Nightclub Marilyn’ where our hero Melvin, after finishing a DJ set in a club (and whilst suffering a full work/narcotic-induced breakdown), hears three completely different versions of his song in the three rooms of Nightclub Marilyn,” he explains. “It’s like the centerpiece of the album!”. -Dan Peeke.
