Dälek (pronounced dialec) is a hip hop outfit from Newark, New Jersey, founded in 1998. The group originally consisted of a lyricist known as Dälek and a producer referred to as The. A turntablist, who was part of the lineup, left the band in the summer of 2005. Despite being known for their noise and bombast, Dälek went on hiatus in 2011 without an official statement. According to Brooks, there was no conflict between him and Momin; rather, it was simply a project that had run its course. Momin moved to Berlin to focus on electronic projects, while Brooks pursued a slightly more traditional rap style as iconAclass. After performing classic Dälek tracks live, Brooks felt inspired to revive the group. With Okto’s blessing, he assembled a new lineup in the spring of 2015, collaborating with a new co-producer.
