Driving Hit's 9 is up on Spotifiy, but only for Japan so far and only disc 1:

Kuu posted in her latest Insta post about the release and she's thanking everybody there that she's able to release this remix series for so long.
Idk what to make out of that comment - might indeed be that this is the last DH release.
The release of the FC magazine backnumber issues is a big success.
I've checked yesterday and all older issues till no. 37 are already sold out.
This remix album is quite nice.
Just like DH's 8 it has some great and some forgettable remixes for me.
As I thought with the previews I love:
HAIRCUT (Ryuki Miyamoto Remix)
会えなくなるくらいなら (Toki Remix) (tho the mixing isn't sadly too good in some parts *sniff*)
HOT HOT (iamSHUM Remix)
恋のつぼみ (Adolfo De La Torre Casmartino Remix), 心からi love u (MATZ Remix) and Guess Who Is Back (KATFYR Remix) are nice as well.
I don't care for Someday (okaerio Remix) and I'll Be There (JOE IRON Remix), cause they basically sound like the original songs with just slightly differences and I don't need a remix for that.
Also really don't like both HUSH remixes, huh.
DH's 7 and DH's 2 remain my favourite.
Edit:
DH's 9 debuts at #12 on the Oricon daily charts.
