Melvin Odoom sits in, and Dr Odoom's in for Dr Beat

The Good Groove with DJ Spoony

Available for 29 days

Feel-good dancefloor favourites, hidden gems and fresh new tunes to make you groove. Melvin Odoom serves up a brilliant selection of soulful house, classic soul, disco, RnB, UK Garage, Reggae, hip hop, doo-wop, funk, dance remixes, and much more. Dr Beat’s away, so his locum Dr. Odoom is on hand to prescribe some musical medication for a listener in need of a pick-me-up. Whether your Monday has gone spectacularly off the rails, you’re recovering from an eventful weekend, or you simply need a track to mark a special occasion, get in touch for a “telephone consultation” in exchange for the perfect tune to match your situation! Text 88291, WhatsApp 08000 288 291 or e-mail spoony@bbc.co.uk. Melvin also reveals his "New 2 Odoom" - his record of the week - and shares a fantastic ‘Monday Mashup’, two tracks blended together to delight and surprise in equal measure..! Plus The ‘Midnight Feast’ track wraps up each show. Think big production, lush orchestration, and the best voices in the business! To listen on most smart speakers, just say “ask BBC Sounds to play The Good Groove". Produced by BBC Audio for BBC Radio 2
