With a stunning new site and lofty production values, Bloc looks set to become a real contender to Sonar’s electronic crown. We’ve compiled a list of twelve of the weekend’s must-see acts to help you plan your weekend itinerary.

Friday

Steve Reich & Bang On A Can Allstars

Resident Advisor Hub // 18:00

Bang On A Can’s most recent show was stymied by a poor choice of work. Regardless of which Reich they choose to play, we wager they won’t have the same problem here.

Amon Tobin: ISAM

Main Arena // 21:00 

The Brazilian producer’s stunning live show, consisting of dozens of shapeshifting boxes, looks set to be one of the weekend’s most visually impressive.

Nathan Fake

Laderaum // 01:00

Ahead of the release of his third album, the Border Community stalwart brings his tape-warmed techno to the hull of the extraordinary MS Stubnitz.

Richie Hawtin

Main Arena // 02:00

Having crafted one of Sonar’s most enjoyable sets, the Canadian DJ makes his Bloc debut. One of the most anticipated appearances of the weekend.

Ricardo Villalobos

Resident Advisor Hub // 04:00

The much-loved Chilean institution follows Hawtin in the Resident Advisor Hub for another two hours on the border of minimal techno and microhouse.

Addison Groove

Stubnitz Atrium // 05:00
