George Lyons warns listeners to strap in for a bumpy ride to find that elusive techno-organic groove.

This episode is a music radio show hosted by DJ George Lyons on listener-supported station 91.5 KUNV Las Vegas. The program features an eclectic, genre-blending mix of music curated by Lyons. The host promises a fun, bumpy ride to a "techno-organic groove" for his listeners. The show opens with the French rap track "Nouveau Western" by MC Solaar from the *Rebirth of Cool Volume 3* compilation. Early tracks include "Radar" by Saint-Germain and drum and bass from Nostradamus's *Earthlights* disc. Lyons plays "Northstar" by Cujo from *Adventures in Foam* and "All In My Mind" by At Home Project. A set begins with Cal Jader's "Morning" from the DJ Spina compilation *Strange Games and Funky Things Volume 5*. The show includes acid jazz from Sharpshooters' "Heavyweight" and trip-hop like "Debajo del Agua" by Marshmallows. A segment features four Bee Gees songs: "Jive Talkin'," "To Love Somebody," "Boogie Child," and "Stayin' Alive." Lyons transitions into rock with "The Beat Goes On" by Beady Eye, the band formed by Liam Gallagher after Oasis. He plays "Hey Bulldog" by The Beatles from the *Yellow Submarine* remaster and "Control" by Garbage. The set includes "Progress" by Booker T. Jones featuring Yim Yams and "Jimmy James" by the Beastie Boys. An international flavor is added with "Maya" by Remember Shakti from the album *Believer*. The host plays a live version of "Fire on the Mountain" by the Grateful Dead from a 1990 Ontario concert. Lyons promotes the *So Many Roads* box set as an essential collection for Deadheads. He repeats the show's listener-supported model and its broadcast on 91.5 FM and KUNV.org. The host frequently uses his signature sign-off, "I am George Lyons, and you... are in the Lyons Den." A promised highlight is an upcoming one-hour radio special dedicated to Joey Ramone of The Ramones. The tone is enthusiastic and conversational, directly addressing the audience as "ladies and gentlemen." The style is that of a freeform DJ set, weaving musical selections with brief commentary and anecdotes. Music enthusiasts seeking a discovery-focused journey through acid jazz, trip-hop, classic rock, and eclectic global beats would love this episode. Listeners preferring structured talk programming or a single musical genre might skip it.
