Artist Biography For Dälek

Dälek Pronounced 'die-A-Leck' Is A Hip-Hop Group Formed In Newark New Jersey In 1998. The Group Currently Comprises MC Dälek Vocals Production Mike Manteca Electronics Production And REK Production . They Have Often Toured With Artists From Radically Different Genres Such As Godflesh Isis Prince Paul Melvins De La Soul RJD2 And Lovage. Dälek's Music Is Dark Noisy And Atmospheric Equally Inspired By Industrial Music Like Einstürzende Neubauten The Layered Noise Of My Bloody Valentine And The Dense Sound Collages Of Public Enemy. Their Sound Is Often Constructed Through Sampling And A Musical Base Atypical Of Most Hip-Hop Making It Difficult For People To Classify Their Sound. They Have Been Described As Trip Hop Glitch-Hop And Metal-Shoegaze-Hip-Hop As Well As Criticized For Their Broad Range Of Sound. MC Dälek Described The Group's Music To The Chicago Sun-Times “It's Purely Hiphop In The Purest Sense. If You Listen To What Hiphop Has Historically Been It Was All About Digging In Different Crates And Finding Different Sounds And Finding Different Influences To Create. If Afrika Bambaataa Wasn't Influenced By Kraftwerk We Wouldn't Have 'Planet Rock'. So In That Sense What We Do Is Strictly Hiphop.” “If There Is A Difference It's That The Palette Of Sounds We Work With Is More Varied Than What Has Been Called Hiphop In The Last 10 Years. Somehow As Hiphop Grew It's Been Put Into This Box. I Think It's Funny When People Are Like "That's Not Hiphop. It's This And This And This." You Can Try To Rationalize It As Whatever You Want To Rationalize It As."
