Forged in the fires of the East Coast underground music scene in the 90s, experimental Hip Hop pioneers, Union City, NJ-based duo Dälek has spent decades carving out a unique niche fusing hardcore Hip Hop, noise and a radical approach to sound. Their brutal sonic temperament pushes rap music’s capacity for noise and protest to some exhilarating conclusions. For their latest and eighth album, Precipice, Dälek unleashes a work that is practically bristling with fury and power. Predominantly the work of the core duo, Will Brooks, aka MC Dälek and Mike Manteca (Mike Mare), Precipice features a guest appearance of Adam Jones of Tool. The striking cover art was done by Paul Romano (Mastodon), and the packaging features the art of Mikel Elam.

Forged in the filth on the floor after the collapse of Belgiums rave-generation, Onmens sets out to violently beat the party back into electronic music. With influences varying from techno over Hardcore to noise and punk, the duo pushes buttons with their deliberately left-field sound.   Onmens seeks to keep you dancing immersed in a trancelike state while blood gushes from both earholes. Their tracks are the soundtrack made for that time of night when the mask comes off and the senses start failing.
