Interested to see DJ Shadow as he's high on my must see list 

I've not missed a Shadow tour in over a decade. His live sets are usually very good but as alluded to above, his dj sets have been a bit heavy on the dubstep side of things in recent years.

Posted in the other thread, and fairly obvious but...

I told you ages ago bicep were playing

loving how stacked the lineup is this year.

[plaskins]

I didn't want to start a new thread, but was wondering if anyone could give me a few artists to mull over in anticipation of this year's festival. I'm into this:

Faithless, Booka Shade, !!!, Tiesto, Chemical Brothers

I know there's a lot more tba, any suggestions from what we know so far?

If you like trancey techno check out Nina Kraviz, recently she's been rinsing the deep trance records

shes not playing this year apparently but she really should play one year

Hawtin on Ch2 on the Coachella stream now. can rewind back to the start of his set anytime up to about 6pm too.

Black Madonna and Mike Servito smashed it last night, she ended the set with a remix of Jolene.

Steffi &  Virginia and Blawan, is any techno hunters paradise in Block 9!!!

Ian Pooley is a nice curveball and so is Blawan - I would not have expected either to show up. Pearson in the London Underground could / should be a highlight!

And Norman Nodge!

[Mezhyp1]

To having 4 that i really want to see in Masters at Work, Blawan, Steffi & Virginia and Midland, before anything from The Common, Arcadia, The Beat Hotel and Stonebridge is a great start, but also the start of what's probably gonny be a clash catastrophe

Shed also!

Man, what absolute feast of a line-up. Honestly really happy with a bunch of the names announced.

[Tuna]

Great start. Dan Shake & Prosumer will be great - without the queues too, I imagine. Hoping everyone is correct about Genosys improving last year as it has always been a fucking catastrophe whenever I've stopped by. Also some nice incentives to check out the London Underground, which has always eluded me. Still have Beat Hotel, The Common and Stonebridge too, fucking ace.

I might as well pitch my tent in the middle of the Genosys dance area.

Never really explored Shangri-La too much, always end up in one of the 4 mentioned above. Think I ended up in Heaven once and didn't really like it. But, didn't go last year, so didn't pay any kind of attention to the nightlife. The nights being clashtastic is excellent though, because you never know what you're in the mood for. There's always going to be something. 

(i.e. there's always going to be someone playing disco)

Naw, when you've got a group of 30+ people who all just want a boogie with a big ol grin, disco is always the one. (Plus all the glitter)

I saw Shed at his LP launch recently, good stuff. Any idea if his set(s) are gunna be live or DJed?

No idea - would dearly love to know which stage too.

Whilst in no way ungrateful for today's fantastic news, I'm sure that last year's Block 9 drop had the stage splits and times on that very first mini-poster...

[Matt42]

Absolutely fucking fantastic

STEFFI + VIRGINIA

[Cieran]

How did I miss Solar? Not one to miss, how exciting

[Madyaker]

Masters at Work in Block 9!  Count me in!

[Matt42]

I keep missing acts on the poster as other posters have said

This is the strongest Bloc 9 lineup EVER

[bennyhana22]

Am I alone in being exceptionally excited about Partok?

most of the DJ's that don't have big names will still end up being great as this is a very well curated area from the cutting edge of the scene
