It’s Happy Monday and Dr Beat is in the house!

Feelgood tunes to make you groove. 'Dr. Beat' is also on hand to prescribe a perfect tune for a listener whose week hasn’t got off to the best start!

Feelgood dance floor favourites, hidden gems and fresh new tunes to make you groove. DJ Spoony 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. Our genial host also unveils his ‘New 2 Spoon’ record of the week and shares a fantastic ‘Monday Mashup’, two tracks blended together to delight and surprise in equal measure!

Spoony’s alter-ego ‘Dr Beat’ is also on hand to prescribe a musical pick-me-up for a lucky listener. 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.

The ‘Midnight Feast’ track wraps up each show. Think big production, lush orchestration, and the best voices in the business!
