Bloc – 12th-14th March – Butlins, Minehead
January 25, 2010
Bloc Weekend has quickly established a reputation as one of the country’s leading dance festivals and this year’s looks no exception.
Held over the weekend of 12th, 13th and 14th of March at the Butlins in Minehead, the line-up is looking stellar with a great mix of dance music legends and future superstars.
Salt N Pepa will be pushing it like it’s 1988 and the ever green Grandmaster Flash is sure to please with his old school hip hop.
Two of last year’s most impressive producers are bound to draw the crowds. Bristol’s Joker started the year as a promising producer blending dub heavy rhythms with huge sounding Eighties electro riffs and ended it remixing Simian Mobile Disco, one of the tunes of the year, and on the verge of superstardom. Joy Orbison’s rise has been even quicker. Hypnotic single Hyph Myngo was in most end-of-year ‘best of’ lists, an amazing blend of cut-up vocals and tribal drums- a kind of beguiling, future garage music. His other releases were equally impressive and he was quickly snapped up by the likes of Four Tet for remixing duties.
Chuck into the mix dubstep from the likes of Pinch, Skream and Benga, and Youngsta, techno superstars Derrick May, Luke Slater and Ellen Alien, hip-hop heavyweight Roots Manuva, the gentleman of garage, MJ Cole, and Warp wizards Autechre and Flying Lotus and you’ve got a serious, serious festival. Oh, and it’s got a swimming pool and you stay in chalets rather than a tent. See you at the top of the slide!
