Guest Coalbucket PI Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I don't mean to be a grumpy old farty poop but I don't know why people keep talking about bringing huge sound systems, the music goes on until 7 or something and then if you're making loads of noise after that they will surely come and make you stop, plus isn't it that sort of thing that gets events licenses taken away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soloman Tump Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I don't mean to be a grumpy old farty poop but I don't know why people keep talking about bringing huge sound systems, the music goes on until 7 or something and then if you're making loads of noise after that they will surely come and make you stop, plus isn't it that sort of thing that gets events licenses taken away Minehead is in the middle of nowhere, there are no neighours to piss off really. The music in a couple of the arenas went on until 10am saturday and sunday morning and kicked off again in others around 2pm so theres only a few hours without the beats. I didnt see security shutting down any chalet parties, but it may have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest macked Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Now that we are into 2011, the countdown to Bloc really starts. So in that spirit, we start off the year with one of the many stellar sets from last year’s festival to keep you going through the first week back at work! Adam Beyer – Bloc10 set Drumcode boss Adam Beyer has been Sweden’s top techno export for the best part of two decades and has collaborated with fellow big guns like Speedy J, Mathew Jonson, Tiga and Marco Carola over the years. His Drumcode label has been thwacking out the most supremely funky and rhythmically heavy techno tunes for 13 years now and his DJ sets are renowned for their depth and uniformly dancefloor smashing capabilities. Beyer owns the chunky funky techno sound and his set at Bloc 2010 proves that in full. Adam Beyer – Bloc10 Set Grab this and a whole host more sets over at the Bloc Weekend site.
