Blazin Remixes EP Review: A UK Garage Gem You Didn’t Know You Needed Alright, so let’s talk about Blazin Remixes EP by Various – a little slice of 2005 UK garage heaven brought to you by Love 2 Funk Records. If you’re into electronic music and love the raw energy of UK garage, this one’s worth a spin. It’s not gonna change your life or anything, but it’ll definitely get your feet moving. The EP features four remixes of “Blazin’,” each bringing its own vibe to the table. I’m just gonna dive into two tracks that stuck with me because, honestly, who’s got time for a track-by-track breakdown? First up, “Blazin’ (ODM Remix)” – this one hits different. ODM takes the original and gives it a fresh coat of bass-heavy swagger. The kicks are punchy, the groove is tight, and there’s this addictive shuffle in the drums that makes it feel like a late-night drive through London streets. What really gets me is how smooth the build-ups are; they don’t rush you into the drop. Instead, they tease you just enough to keep things interesting. It’s one of those tracks where you find yourself nodding along even when you’re trying to act all cool and collected. Then there’s “Blazin’ (Leon 1 Love Remix)”, which feels like a totally different beast. Leon goes full-on funky with this one, layering in these lush synth stabs that sound like sunshine melting over a dancefloor. I remember hearing this at a house party once, and everyone just lost it. Like, people who didn’t even know each other started dancing together. That’s the power of a good remix—it brings folks together without them realizing it. The vocal chops in this version are fire too, chopped and pitched just right to give off major throwback vibes. Now, I won’t lie—the other two remixes are solid, but they don’t stick in my brain quite as much as these two do. Sy Get Funky adds some nice bounce, and Dezz Jones keeps it sleek, but ODM and Leon 1 Love? They’re the stars of the show here. So yeah, Blazin Remixes EP might not be groundbreaking, but it’s a killer example of what UK garage can do when done right. It reminds me of simpler times before playlists ruled everything, back when DJs would surprise you with bangers like this outta nowhere. Honestly, listening to it now feels kinda nostalgic, like finding an old mixtape in the bottom of a drawer. Oh, and here’s the random thought that hit me while writing this: if UK garage was a person, it’d probably have wicked dance moves and an even better sense of humor. Just saying.
