On “Walking Thru Fire” Nine:Fifteen recruits long time art director, music collaborator, and friend Radel Esca’s singing talent on “Keep Trying,” and brings raw energy combined with a hypnotizing melodic flute loop. On the second track Comel joins up with friend and Glow In The Dark label-mate Shawn Jackson on “The One I Always Cry For.” The two lace rugged swinging flows over a whaling guitar and a grinding organ beat. The Final track “R.I.P.” finds Comel reflecting on the obvious, but is it, really? Unique song structure and a mysterious flow help this guitar-riff laden beat to complete the third twelve-inch by Nine:Fifteen.

Blake9 produces a funky canvas on lead track "Missy Prissy", while Count's lyrics paint a portrait for listenters as he touches on a number of topics, punctuated by a lament over decisions made early on in the game. On the second track "Gamble," Blake9 and Count are joined by Comel_15 of Nine:Fifteen and Time Machine fame, in arguably his most blazing effort to date. Count and Comel_15 bob & weave seamlessly in-between the melody ruminating on the risks of gambling upion wishful thinking. Finally, on "Selfish & Impatient", the track drives along persistently as Count pays even more dues and tries to get that Paper! Cout is out for his and he's starting to get impatient...

Mad Squirrel
has been a fixture on the West Coast underground hip hop scene. His
releases with the Forest Fires Collective (and sundry underground
tapes) have sent shockwaves through both coasts and throughout a scene
that extends as far as France and Japan. He’s now teamed up
DC deejay/producer extraordinaire and mixtape maestro Blake9 –
the man responsible for some of the most innovative underground tracks
to come out this century. Guests on the 12 song CD include Prego w/
Zest (of the Forest Fires Collective), Comel_15 (of Nine:Fifteen
and Time Machine), Pasha the Emcee, and Stylus Chris (of
Defined Print). Watch your head while walking through the forest,
the Acorns are Dropping from the Trees.

Nine:Fifteen
(a duo consisting of MC Comel_15 and DJ/Producer Blake9) are back with
their second 12-inch release on Candle Wax Records, “Deluxe Laminated”.
Another undeniably raw, full-flavored hip hop single from the label
quickly establishing itself amongst the indie-elite, the three track
single sees Blake9 laying down some gritty bangers from his trusty SP1200
while Comel_15 provides clever wordplay and a dose of reality with a
buttery flow. Cover

(Dead Aritsts). Sleepers sleep The A-side, "The Doo Bad Hustle"
features Blake9 on the zigga zigga over an RjD2 type track filed with
crisp drums and a funky ass bassline. The flip side, "Concrete

hop.

Blake9 and Comel_15 of Time Machine fame team up on this one for one
of the most exciting hip hop releases this year. The B-side features
the instrumenals of the tracks on the A."...they've
composed a stellar single and packaged it with two sturdy B-sides. "Spilt
Milk" rides a jungle boogie trumpet squeal and a shuffling four
note bass figure and refuses to let your ears wander until it's over.
Comel's amiable delivery and natural flow keep the verses fresh, but
the focus is clearly on the half-sung, half-spoken hook, and that's
a good thing, because it's a winner." Cover
