Been rewatching the early Buffy seasons recently and the most unrealistic thing about that show is the idea that teenagers would actively go to a bar to dance to Morcheeba

We are streaming NOW - our last Blizzard Comedy show ft @toxicshamesquadron.bsky.social @danmckee.bsky.social @jamesrosscomedy.bsky.social @wilkinsonsamuel.bsky.social and some more non-he/him comics who unfortunately don't have bluesky so make us look worse www.twitch.tv/blizzardcomedy
The last of my 2025 list vids is up: the best albums, EPs, deluxe editions and compilations that had some notable focus on remixes to them. But that would be a terrible title, so I'm just going with Best Remix Albums Of 2025.

The second of my 2025 review videos is here, with the Best Remixes list. So many good stuff released last year, I couldn't cover it all in anything smaller than Top 40 form. Feedback is welcomed as ever. Enjoy!

YouTube just peaked
This is great stuff, and if we had any taste we would have heard these and played them for you.
But we didn't, so you should watch this instead.
So yeah, it's mid-January. And speaking of mid, I just released a video about some remixes I heard in 2025 that were worse than mid. Enjoy!

Sad new year then
My unachieveable goal for 2026 is to make something as good as this photo I took when cat-sitting Bella
Not wishing any of you a Happy New Year unless you promise me you’re not going to squander it this time
For my last review of 2025, we're looking at the new queen of sample-based dance pop, PinkPantheress, who celebrated her breakout mixtape Fancy That with a star-studded 22 track remix version titled Fancy Some More? But will you?

An absolute feast of tracks for the last Ruffled Mix before Christmas, plus a completely unmixable post-rock song that I've been forced to try and mix and am in no way worried about breaking the flow with whatsoever. 2pm on Twitch today, come investigate. x

Bronski Beat's 1984 debut The Age Of Consent mixed foreboding dark electro with Jimmy Somerville's unique countertenor to paint a both bleak and uplifting picture of homosexual life in 80's UK. This year the album's final remix packaged Forbidden Fruit dropped. Review here:

Christmas idea: mulled wine, except it’s Huel
This haircut took two hours because I do not understand basic hairdresser terminology, so of course I’m going to post it
Finally getting around to completing some of the Remix Review Guy reviews I wrote and recorded in the summer. Firstly, Madonna's Veronica Electronica - a somewhat tardy and blinkered reimagining of her 1998 curveball Ray Of Light:

Gonna start a band called 2025 Anyone, so that we get free publicity in the YouTube comments of other people's songs.
Obviously we'll have to break up at the end of the year tho
Now that I am housed and Covid-free, I can get back to my most important body of work: doing DJ challenge streams advertised by dispassionate lists of real songs you may or may not have heard of.
2pm every Saturday on Twitch, I'd be honoured to see you there.

Yeah, Silksong is okay, but I really wish the enemies did more damage
So if you get older than 100, does that count as DLC
Album title of the day
Okay gang, so I’ve been playing Silksong at my partner’s house and the boss pictured below made me cry and she thinks I’m a weirdo for it. Back me up fellas, pls
Haven't managed to do as much RRG content as I would've liked recently, but at the very least I managed a Roundup video for the last couple of months. Reviewing remixes of K-pop, hip-hop, Thai rock, Inuit folk, charity advert music, and more:

My recent Worms Armageddon ranking video's already hit 15K views. I have no idea how. Maybe the comments section will explain its appeal...
Reminder that 100,000 people marched for Trans Pride in London earlier this year, but because they weren't violent fascists, there was minimal press coverage, unlike the Nazis today.

The secret of the Twix that THE MAN doesn’t want you to know, is that it’s a way of having Millionaire’s Shortbread when you’re not near a bakery or cake shop.
A few years ago I made some videos rating a bunch of weapons from Worms Armageddon. I missed out a few, however, so have started catching up on those now. Here's a video ranking every Special Weapon from worst to best:

Thackray, twigs or Pantheress would be my picks. What y'all reckon
Karl Popper, anyone?
