Maverick Sabre is the Rewind Selector!

Feelgood tunes to make you groove! Plus, Maverick Sabre chooses the tracks that take him back to the dance floors of his youth in Rewind Selector.

Feelgood favourites, hidden gems and fresh 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.

Maverick Sabre is our Rewind Selector this week, taking us back to the dance floors and records of his youth. Maverick grew up listening to his father's extensive Blues, Folk and Country record collection, and as a teen he immersed himself in Ireland’s burgeoning hip‑hop community as both an MC and producer. He then released his platinum-selling breakthrough album 'Lonely Are The Brave', back in 2012, quickly establishing himself as one of Ireland's most distinctive soul voices of the past decade. He's amassed over 1 billion streams and collaborated with the likes of Jorja Smith, Chronixx, George the Poet and Chase & Status. His new single '8 Stages' explores the emotional cycles of love, growth and acceptance. It marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Irish-born, London-raised singer-songwriter as he returns with one of his most personal bodies of work to date.

Our genial host also unveils his ‘New 2 Spoon’ record of the week and wraps things up with a ‘Midnight Feast’ track. Think big production, lush orchestration, and the best voices in the business!
