Deli Girls is an emotionally charged, bombastic dance punk project based in Brooklyn, NY comprised of vocalist Danny Orlowski and various DJ/producers. In fall 2022, Orlowski started working with DJ/producer Hatechild (head necromancer at Melting Point). The two are connected via over a decade in the NYC underground, and known for hardcore dance mosh pits, and ongoing fund-raving efforts. Orlowski and Hatechild have always shared unforgivingly anti-establishment, queer freak values. “Abolish police, abolish prisons, abolish ICE!”

“In recent years, Deli Girls has taken the lead in New York’s exciting noise scene,” writes  Kiana Mickles in “Resident Advisor”, while “The Fader” finds interesting parallels between the duo and the music of a certain generations past childhood: “Like all the best mall punk and nu metal, this duo’s noise music reminds you what it’s like to feel invincible.”

“They pull from industrial hardcore and nu-metal,” writes “Stereogum” of “Boss”, their latest record so far. “There’s a cover of Korn’s “Faget” and a song that sounds like Evanescence — and they create abrasive sounds that bristle at political grandstanding and misinformation, anger and frustration swallowed up and spit back out in a growl.”
