dälek on Brilliance of a Falling Moon, and Writing Music as Therapy MC dälek and Mike Mare discuss the new album on Ipecac Recordings Transmission 338: Interview with dälek Featured image: © Ashkan Sahihi dälek is an experimental hip-hop group founded in Newark, New Jersey by Will Brooks (MC dälek) and Alap Momin (Oktopus). The group debuted in 1998 with Negro Necro Nekros, a record that buried hardcore hip-hop under layers of noise, ambient drift, and thunderous drum breaks. Over the next decade, albums like From Filthy Tongue of Gods and Griots (2002), Absence (2005), and Abandoned Language (2007) pushed the architecture of rap music into territory no one else was occupying, somewhere between Public Enemy, power electronics, and industrial wreckage.

Brilliance of a Falling Moon — dälek (Ipecac Recordings, 2026). MC dälek and Mike Mare talk repeating cycles, subconscious choices, and the accident that built a twenty-year partnership.

I made the beat for "How I Am, How Work Is" after Bray Wyatt died in tribute to him. Loved Shatter by Code Orange and wanted to make something dope like that.
