Vance said to be cycling? He's known for spinning records (6)
I believe the answer is:
deejay
'vance said to be cycling? he's known for spinning records' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'vance said to be cycling? he's' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'he' could be 'jay' and 'jay' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'dee' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for deejay that I've seen before include "Disc-jockey" , "provider of music" , "Radio presenter" , "Record presenter" , "player of many tunes" .)
