About Me


Bloc is aka Andre Baigent from Cardiff / Wales, who has been producing his own dance music and graphics for a few years, and has worked under various names and covered various styles and genre. Andre has also toped various online charts with various projects and also played on live radio in germany, and other local radio stations including recent interest from Bethan Elfan at Radio 1. Unfortunatly Andre was forced to take time out from producing due to a second eye accident, leaving him with very poor vision and scared retinars in both eyes and registered disabled.
Despite "all the crap" over the last few years, Andre has "bounced back" with a couple new projects, with this page being dedicated to his old friend Mark Jones from Cardiff. Andre produces a gritty underground sound influenced mainly by the rave scene in the early to mid nineties and the free party scenes prior to the shitty 'criminal justice bill.
Full of flavour Andre produces some original hand-crafted techno twists and trax to feed the head as well as exploring his own creative and intuitive bounderies. Also watch out for other electronic projects by Andre.
