It's a big occasion for me this month, because The Mix Review is now officially 10 years old! What started as a bit of a leftfield article idea in the pages of SOSback in April 2011 has since grown into an improbably large archive of more than 500 critiques of commercial productions -- and I couldn't have done it without the support of Sound On Sound and all of you valued readers!
So thanks for sticking with me all this time, everyone!

And, seeing as birthdays are as good a time as any for a bit of self-indulgence, I've decided to celebrate the event with a big retrospective article, reminiscing about some of the hundreds of productions I've critiqued over the years -- including both my Highlight Of The Decade... and my Lowlight Of The Decade!
Here's a link if you fancy a trip down memory lane:
The Mix Review: 10th Anniversary Retrospective!
Of course, the column's still going strong, with new critiques posted every Friday. Most recent post is a critique of Billie Eilish's latest Grammy winner 'Everything I Wanted', although I'd say both Sierra Hull's '25 Trips' and Ingrid Andress' 'More Hearts Than Mine' are just as worthy of your attention amongst the latest Grammy nominees...
