The Breezeblock was broadcast on BBC Radio 1 in the UK and ran from 17th February 1997 to 2nd September 2010, broadcast late at night during the week. Its final timeslot was every Wednesday morning from 2am to 4am (GMT). The Breezeblock was presented by Mary Anne Hobbs.

On 25 September 2006 the Breezeblock moniker was dropped and the show renamed to Mary Anne Hobbs: BBC Radio 1's Experimental Show. Though accompanied by a time slot change, the show's format, purpose, and breadth of genre remained very similar.
