Mom's Spaghetti Radio

Hip Hop, House and Happiness

Mom's Spaghetti Radio is a music-led station broadcasting from Oldham across Manchester on DAB and online, built around hip hop, house, dance and R&B from the 80s through to today. It has a local North West identity, but the sound is wider than a typical town station, aiming for feel-good club memories, strong personality and familiar anthems rather than safe wallpaper radio.

Mom's Spaghetti Radio launched from Oldham with a very clear pitch: hip hop, house and happiness. The station was created by Matt Ramsbottom and built around the kind of records that connect with listeners who grew up on 80s, 90s and 00s dance, hip hop and R&B, rather than the usual generic local radio mix. That makes it feel more like a station with a point of view than a playlist trying to please everyone.

The local angle is important to the station's identity. Mom's Spaghetti broadcasts from studios in Oldham and has positioned itself as a Manchester DAB service with roots in the local radio scene, including familiar names from Revolution 96.2 and Hacienda-linked dance culture. Even when the music format is broad, the station still feels tied to Greater Manchester rather than sounding like a faceless national stream pretending to be local.

The current weekday schedule gives the station a proper live spine through the day. Ditchy handles Breakfast from 6am, Matt & Paddy take over the Daytime slot from 9am, Ian "Basezone" Smith hosts Lunch from noon, and Anna Kirkpatrick fronts Drivetime from 3pm. The station also carries specialist and personality-led output beyond that, including Mom's Evenings, Mom's Weekender, Lisa on Friday nights and Paddy's Off The Hook House Show at the weekend, so it has more shape than just nonstop dance tracks.

Notable Presenters & Shows: Ditchy hosts Breakfast from 6am to 9am and joined the station in 2024 after spells at Key 103, Revolution 96.2, Radio City and Real Radio. Matt & Paddy front the weekday Daytime show from 9am to noon, with Matt Black bringing a long Manchester DJ background and Paddy also known for the Off The Hook House Show on Saturdays from 10pm. Ian "Basezone" Smith presents Lunch every weekday from noon to 3pm, while Anna Kirkpatrick hosts Drivetime from 3pm. The wider presenter roster also includes Graeme Park on Mom's Breakfast, Owen Sherratt on weekday afternoons and Lisa on Friday nights.

  • Ditchy: Hosts Breakfast from 6am to 9am and joined Mom's Spaghetti Radio in 2024 after previous roles at Key 103, Revolution 96.2, Radio City and Real Radio.
