Welcome to Garden Groove Music—a record label and event series where rhythm and nature converge to create unforgettable experiences. Inspired by the lush harmony and transformative lessons found in a garden, we cultivate a space for sonic exploration.

Rooted in South Africa and guided by founder Ashwin Middleway (W.NN.E), Garden Groove Music began as a passion project and has blossomed into a vibrant community of DJs, producers and music lovers. Our ethos draws upon the principles of diversity and creative cross-pollination, much like the flourishing beauty of nature. Here, every artist brings a unique energy, and no groove is the same; we celebrate the rich variety of electronic music and invite all walks of life to sow their sounds and reap the joy of shared creativity.

Our events are more than gatherings—they are journeys that fuse rhythm with atmosphere. From intimate sessions at The Commons and The Shed in Muizenberg, to rooftop revelry at The Grand Daddy Hotel and shoreside grooves at Mira Beach Club, we curate moments where music moves the dancefloor and memories root deep. With thoughtfully-sized crowds and acclaimed talent gracing our lineups—including Leighton Moody, Oliver Osborne (Canada), Jazzuelle, Sculptured Music, June Jazzin, Kat La Kat, LEEU, Avi Subban, Aizo Clutch, Nastic Groove,Pierre Johnson, Kudbeu, Fizz & Shai and others—each occasion is personal and steeped in good vibes.

Garden Groove Music exists to discover, nurture, and promote outstanding local and international talent, offering a creative platform for artists to release music and express individuality. Whether beneath sunlit skies or beneath the stars, we invite you to step into our garden.
