Feel-good tunes to groove and sooth your soul. Dr. Beat's "locum" Dr. Odoom is also on hand to prescribe a perfect tune for a listener whose week hasn’t got off to the best start!

Feel-good favourites, hidden gems and fresh new tunes to groove and sooth you. Melvin Odoom, in for DJ Spoony, serves up a brilliant selection of classic soul, disco, soulful house, R&B, funk, UK garage, reggae, hip-hop, doo-wop, yacht rock and more. Our genial host also unveils his New 2 Odoom record of the week.

Spoony’s alter-ego Dr Beat is usually on hand to prescribe a musical pick-me-up for a lucky listener, while he's on his holiday Dr. Odoom is covering him in the song surgery! 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!
