You know Alap Momin as the founder of Newark, NJ hip-hop group Dalek, a band that he co-founded with Will Brooks in the late 90’s; a band he also left about ten years ago to conquer new vistas. He relocated to Harlem and set up shop to produce a multitude of up and coming hiphop, R&B and electronic artists based I the New York City area. In the interim years he has been busy with MRC Riddims, BKGD Audio and on the ever of this conversation he is gearing up to launch his label Internet and Weed.

I first saw Alap perform almost tow decades ago with Dalek and was devastated by the raw intensity and sheer volume of the sound; probably one of the heaviest experiences in a music setting that I’ve ever witnessed and it taught me a new aspect of the word “Extreme Music.” Dalek, over the years has performed all over the world with the likes of Isis, Melvins and other luminaries in the heavy rock world.
