XLR8R

On their second 12", Nine:Fifteen (Blake9 on production, Comel15 on the mic) comes strong with three tracks firmly rooted in that classic boom-bap. Time Machine homie Jaysonic lends a hand on "Freak Out," riding a great guitar chop and chunky drums, while "NoStylegic" revisits the beat from Black Moon‘s "Slave." "You Deserve Less" is the mellow closer, and the B-side rocks all the instrumentals. Quality stuff.
