Matt Ford, aka DJ Format, first came to attention at the start of the noughties with a series of sharp B-Boy influenced 12 inches, featuring guest vocalists Chali 2na and Abdominal. Now, many seminal albums later, we welcome him to Manchester as part of the 45 Live crew. His DJ sets are renowned for their boundary-crossing selection of funk, soul, rock and hip-hop. Tickets for the night on Saturday the 3rd of February are available at Night & Day.
