Dälek begins in 1998 with the Negro, Necro, Nekros EP release with the label Gern Blandsten Records. The duet made up of MC Dälek (vocal) and the producer Oktopus (laptop) composes a very calm and deep rap with noisy and downtempo instrumentation.
Native to Newark in the New Jersey both musicians met Mike Patton in 2002 (ex Faith No More and Mr.Bungle) who helped them to produce their second album ''From Filthy Tongue Of Gods And Griots" in his label: Ipecac Recordings. Dälek and Oktopus will benefit from the collaboration of Dj Still who will be on the stage with them during the tour. This album with industrial and experimental sonorities tone is intense without being violent. The electronic or even noise instrumentations contrasts with rhythmical and simple flow.
