Agree with the Rephlex and Warp bit!!!!! If it's gonna be jungle can it be someone interesting? Natty was ace in 2010 but Bizzy B was boring as hell in 2009. How about Soundmurderer? Is he still doing stuff?

also get mr scruff down there
Agree with the theme's being a waste, magnum pi and a wedding are so boring, there is very little room for creativity. You need something a bit more open-ended where every person who dress's up is wearing something different.
Few more names : Bill Youngman, Mark Hawkins, Systemic, Paul Damage, Axel Sohns.
yeh was trolling this blog last year and came across the computer games themes fort that was ace tho we were gonna go as various boxs from games, amo crates, mario boxs, snake ect not that creative but would have been a laff enstead we went as lots of litter celotaped to us
ps for the artist thing get more hiphop grandmaster flash and mix master mike were sooooooooo sik last year if pos maby madlib or jay electronica would be amazing

I think you should blag the Brainfeeder crew along. They should bring some friends and take over a stage for the evening.
Selection of:
• DAEDELUS
• DR. STRANGELOOP
• FLYING LOTUS
• LORN
• RAS_G
• SAMIYAM
• TEEBS
• THE GASLAMP KILLER
• TOKIMONSTA
Maybe wish some friends:
• DORIAN CONCEPT
• GONJASUFI
• HUDSON MOHAWKE
The Brainfeeder parties they put on in London are always a win

Please no more skream & benga! Hate to moan but Bloc could do without turning into a jockstep fest, shame to see it going that way this year, plenty of other festivals to cater for those folks and plenty of other dubstep... surely DMZ!
Couldn't agree more! And please no 'big name' headliners this year either, I didn't go last year because I didn't dig a lot of the line-up at all and a lot of my friends thought the same. I also agree with the above poster that some/any of the Brainfeeder collective would be epic. Some other suggestions:
Dimlite
Lone
PVT
Yimino
Solar Bears
Shlohmo
Luke Abbott
VHS Head
Oriol
Dam-Funk
Becoming Real
The Flashbulb
Deceptikon
Illum Sphere
Mux Mool
Also some more chillout stuff like the Benbecula (rip) artists at Bloc 2 would be nice. I think artists like Oneohtrix Point Never would be perfect for a more relaxed affair! I also second what a lot of people are saying, Boards of Canada. Rumour has it they've a new album for 2011, it's a long shot but you never know!

This post was much longer, but I realised the rest of it pailed in insignificance, and only detracted from a suggestion of James Blake!
Seen the man twice this year, and both times he has completely blown me away...like...completely
