The frontier of electronic and experimental music will be appearing at next year's Bloc Weekender, which this year takes place at Butlins in Minehead on March 11th-13th.

So far Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke plays live from last year's triumphant album Tomorrow's Modern Boxes, with Four Tet, Jeff Mills, Ben Klock, Nina Kraviz, Ben UFO, Omar-S, and Rodhad amongst the DJs in action.

Techno titans Surgeon and Blawan reprise their Trade moniker (as heard above), Regis teams up with Ancient Methods for their industrial strength doom techno as Ugandan Methods, with Laurel Halo, Helena Hauff, Objekt, Demdike Stare, Powell, and believe it or not, former Snooker World Champion Steve Davis amongst the other highlights. Head here for the Bloc Weekender line up.
