The 95 Degrees Mashup 2022 was a live-streamed, interactive event celebrating 95 Degrees' 6th anniversary - consisting of announcements, awards, speeches, live quizzes and more.

The 2022 Mashup continued the use of the 95 Degrees v4 branding from last year, this time including looping assorted clips that represent the 95 Degrees brand and community - such as the 3D printed "95" logo, 95 Degrees' appearance in Reddit /r/place 2022, and clips from 95 LIVE.

In the pre-show, Stream Racer was replaced by Marbles On Stream - similar in gameplay, but without the lag issues presented by Stream Racer.

2022 marked an increase in experimental segments, such as the Fiverr Intros segment - with Nath commissioning a Fiverr studio to "produce" various intro animations with the 95 Degrees Mashup branding, and Mr. Nath Sky - years worth of Twitch stream clips synchronised to the beat of Mr. Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra.

Close to the end of the 2022 Mashup, Tag was announced as a returning Barista.

The show ended with a lyric video for "So They Say" from the Tetris Effect soundtrack, paired with visuals from the game. The credits appear towards the end of the song.

Trivia

  • The 95 Degrees Mashup 2022 was almost delayed due to severe technical issues.
  • The event was streamed on Twitch, peaking at 64 peak viewers - an increase by 36% over the previous year.
  • Motion graphics for the event were mostly created in Adobe After Effects, with other elements and the main edit done in Adobe Premiere Pro.
  • The event was broadcast live on Twitch with OBS Studio, with live elements (such as polls and predictions) overplayed as web browser sources in real time.
  • A VHS filter was added to the stream while the popular vaporwave song HOME - Resonance played during the pre-show.
  • During one of the interactive Trivia sections, Nath's internet completely dropped for about 5 minutes, resulting in the show being completely cut off for that period. When the internet connection finally returned, the VHS filter was accidentally re-enabled for about a minute. In the YouTube VOD, this is edited out by replacing the affected segment with the original pre-recorded video - at the cost of the interactive elements and overlays like the Twitch chat being lost.
