DJ Moto revs up the airwaves with a mix of classic Dio, Australian rock from Avalanche, and a deep dive into 2026’s ‘Year of the Fire Horse’ energy.
In this high-octane Monday evening episode of The Fab Guy on a Bike Show, DJ Moto takes listeners on a two-hour journey through the past, present, and future of rock and metal. From the legendary riffs of Ronnie James Dio and AC/DC to the ‘swampy’ sounds of Otis and the progressive power of Spain’s Hertz Theory, the episode is a masterclass in eclectic formatting. The host balances the music with personal anecdotes about the 1980s UK gig scene and practical updates on upcoming tours for bands like Mason Hill and Michael Monroe.
Beyond the music, DJ Moto delves into the spiritual and astrological, marking the transition into the ‘Year of the Fire Horse’ in February 2026. He discusses how this rare energy—characterized by rapid change and bold transformation—mirrors the current explosion of new talent in the rock scene. Whether it’s the ‘Peaky Blinders’ aesthetic of Birthright or the cinematic textures of Aeon Gods, this episode celebrates the resilience of the music scene and the community of ‘wolves without a rhyme’ who keep it alive.
