"Doing 'HASH IT OUT WITH JANE' on KUSF-IN-EXILE just keeps getting more fun! I had the pleasure of interviewing a super fun and funky hip-hop group called, KOUNTERCLOCKWISE. They are extremely musically diverse and very down to Earth folks.... "

— Jane Hash, KUSF-IN-EXILE

“Metaphor for Starting Over A Fitting Title for Krip-Hop Act Kounterclockwise's New Album "Daylight Savings Time"”

— Billy Jam, Amoeblog

“Your album is EXTEMLY ADDICTIVE! It's like stepping into a different Dimension like a scared & Titilated Young Alice!! As storytellers you both Clearly know the the importance of Beginnings & Endings. Starting with Dec. 20th 2012 & Finishing with Dec. 21st 2012 was Brilliant! That last track you litteraly took us to THE END. Love OCD & it flows seemlessly from the 1st track! Pipe Dreams feels like a Road Trip Fantasy. The Great Black Pit is AMAZING. It's like a Inner-City Hip Hop Horror Movie! Love that song musically. Milk Carton Probes the Depths Lyrically like Jim Morrison never could. Hide & Seek is a Drowsy Opium dream. Jump makes me think of my Acid Trips many years ago. You two can't be defined except maybe Trippy & Potant! Your Lyrics Deacon are like a Dimented, Tormented Buddah on Lithium! Musically, every track has multiple Layers & Nuances that are beautiful. Thanks for Creating this album Guys!!! ”

— Kevin "CARTOONIVERSE1" , Youtube

— Band Aid with Doc Rock

“Deacon Burns lost the use of his legs in a tragic accident.It didn't slow him down by any means. So, lets forget that for now - not that it isn't important, but lets talk music. Close your eyes and listen. Doesn't matter if Deacon is walking , or not. He and Kaya Rogue have put together an impressive style of hip hop that is uniquely their own. The breaks, twists and harmonies in these tunes are anything but ordinary. You have great songwriting by Burns and flashes of lyrical genius on the part of Kaya throughout. Unique separates the good, the ordinary - from the GREAT. What I hear listening to Kounterclockwise is "GREAT"”

— Rick Frost, Reverbnation

“TWISTED TALENT - KOUNTERCLOCKWISE MC SHOWS HE HASN'T BEEN MARKING TIME... ”
