| | D─LEK | |
| | | |
| | Abandoned Language | |
| | | |
| | When we last left off with DΣlek, they had released Absence, a | |
| | dark and dirgy romp through hip-hop's underground that left | |
| | countless listeners and critics in awe. However, while it would | |
| | probably be a good career move to replicate that album's noisy | |
| | charm, DΣlek have once again reinvented themselves with their | |
| | fourth and most accomplished full-length, Abandoned Language. | |
| | "We've been making wall of noise records for a long time and I | |
| | think with Absence we realized that was as far as we wanted to go | |
| | with that sound," dΣlek (the MC/producer) explains. "That sound | |
| | was just so heavy and dense, but the new one is about composition | |
| | and notes we are playing. The layering is still there, but the | |
| | instrumentation is totally different." In fact, from the sinister | |
| | strings in "Lynch" to old-school hip-hop flavor of "Isolated | |
| | Stare" to the heady melodicism of "Tarnished", Abandoned Language | |
| | is complex enough for fans of avant-noise, but accessible enough | |
| | for mainstream hip-hop audiences. | |
| | | |
| | In case you're unfamiliar with DΣlek, here's a short version: | |
| | dΣlek began MCing and Djing in the late-80s, the current | |
| | incarnation of the group didn't exist until the mid-'90s when he | |
| | brought co-producer Oktopus into the mix. Since then the duo have | |
| | tirelessly toured and worked with countless other DJs and | |
| | musicians to create some of the most challenging music in the | |
| | underground. However, it was 2005's Ipecac Recordings Absence | |
| | that brought them national press attention while confusing the | |
| | hell out of people, eliciting comparisons to the X-ecutioners, | |
| | whose DJ Rob Swift is featured prominently on Abandoned Language, | |
| | My Bloody Valentine, Pink Floyd, Eric B and Rakim, Penderecki, | |
| | and countless other disparate yet groundbreaking acts. | |
| | | |
| | "This album is very deceiving," dΣlek explains, likening | |
| | Abandoned Language to a David Lynch film. "When you listen to it | |
| | the first time, you kind of get into it for the melodic reasons, | |
| | but the more you listen to it the more fucked up you realize it | |
| | is," he continues, laughing. "I think a lot of people could get | |
| | into it for the wrong reasons and not really realize whatÆs being | |
| | said or whatÆs going on sonically or compositionally, and by the | |
| | tenth listen you realize youÆre sucked into this bizarre world, | |
| | you know?" he explains, pausing for a second to collect his | |
| | thoughts. "We want to embrace you with the sound and then | |
| | suffocate you." | |
| | | |
| | Trust us, asphyxiation never sounded more bangin'. | |
