"Matt Ford, better known as DJ Format (a near-inversion of his birth name), is a hip hop DJ born in Southampton, England who lives in Brighton. He collaborates frequently with Abdominal on the album Music For the Mature B-Boy and with Abdominal and fellow Canadian rapper D-Sisive on the second full album If You Can't Join 'Em… Beat 'Em, as well as with Akil and Chali 2na from Jurassic 5.n 2006 Format's "fabriclive 27" in the Fabric DJ mix series was one of the most well received of the series[citation needed]. His DJ sets are renowned[citation needed] for their boundary-crossing selection of the funk, soul, rock & hip-hop and his fabric mix showed off a condensed version of the party set that he's built a solid reputation on. This was followed up by his own underground mix of obscure Eastern European beats, the now highly collectable 'European Vacation' CD. In 2008 Format released another mix album, this time for the Fania label, applying his b-boy style to a catalogue of latin music. Alongside this, Format also discreetly released a 12" tribute to James Brown, Stealin' James. DJ Format's third album is due for release on 27 February 2012" - Wikipedia
