British Comedy Guide, 22nd December 2021Review: The Damien Slash Mixtape
The Damien Slash Mixtape equally defied expectation. It actually made fun of things you want fun made of. It goes very fast, leaping between subjects sure-footedly, unexpectedly. It is, in short, witty, apt and very welcome. And all in 15 minutes. Written and performed by Daniel Barker, with help on the former by Tom Savage, on the latter by Natasia Demetriou, it is worth going into a room at 11pm on your own to hear it lest you laugh immoderately under the gaze of gloomier members of your household. There are three more programmes to come. I intend not to miss a moment. But if you missed this one, go to Sounds and find it.

Slash's throw-everything-at-it approach produces dividends, but it's notable that the less frenetic moments are the ones that prove the most memorable.
