Last month, Dälek went out on an all-too-brief tour with Russian Circles. Next month, the New Jersey alablasters will head on another short trip with RJD2 before retreating to familiar ground in Europe.
It should be an interesting juxtaposition — the melancholy breakbeats of RJD2 and backing band Happy Chichester matched with the dour, industrial raps of MC Dälek and producer Oktopus. Dälek plays loud, so be sure to get there early and bring your earplugs.
