DJ Format chats to ilikemusic.com

ilm: Have there been any highlights as a punter going to see others play?

FORMAT: Yeh yeh, lemme think ... I genuinely got really inspired everynight watching Little Barrie play their live gigs before us. I had already been to loads of their live gigs before they toured with us because I was a big fan of their music, so that was really good.

And again, I hate to sound cheesy and predictable but obviously touring with people like Ugly Duckling and Jurrasic 5. Those guys really know how to put on a fun and entertaining HipHop show, not only are the MC's great but the DJ's, Cut Chemist and Nu-Mark, put on their own little seperate show with turntables and persussion instruments. To see that is really inspiring, its like, thank god there is still some inspiring HipHop out their being performed, because 9 times out of 10 when you do watch someone its very disappointing, especially HipHop acts, people just stand there.

Other people I've been really impressed with have been The Aspects. Again, I don't wanna get accused of being too cheesy because they are my friends, but I do think they put on a great show. They've got a beatboxer called Monkey Moo who really gets the crowd on their side. Also Edan, I saw Edan up in Jazz Cafe he was really good, but other than that I don't go to much HipHop stuff, Id rather go and watch some Jazz or Funk and relax.
