n this high-octane episode, DJ Moto brings his signature ‘fluffy and hairy’ energy to the airwaves, blending brand new releases with legendary rock staples. The show takes a personal turn as Moto recounts his recent birthday celebrations and the saga of purchasing a new motorcycle, reminding listeners why this is the ultimate destination for the ‘Bike Show’ crowd. A highlight of the episode is the introduction of South African band Five Sided Dice, whom Moto discovered by chance while chatting with a waiter at a wedding, proving that the best music often finds you when you least expect it.
The second hour shifts gears into listener engagement, featuring a heartfelt shout-out to a dedicated audience in the remote Karoo region of South Africa. Moto fulfills a rare request for Golden Earring’s ‘Radar Love’—a track he hasn’t spun in over a decade—alongside heavy hitters from Sweet Electric and Blacklist Union. Between the riffs, the host provides crucial updates on the UK rock scene, including the relocation of the HRH festival circuit. The show closes with a nostalgic nod to classic cinema and a thunderous finale that keeps the ‘rubber side down’ for all the riders listening in.
