MacGroove is the artistic name of Juan Macías Mateo, a producer from Seville. His work belongs to the new generation of Sevillian breakbeat: a discography that starts in 2026, built on a fast, direct club sound, usually between 137 and 143 BPM, inside breaks and UK bass.

The first phase is Syncopated Soul. February brings Ivory Rave and Desert Of Steel. March follows with City Pulse, Dark Frequency, Off My Feet and Obsidian, released on 10 March at 138 BPM, one of the cuts that best fixes that beginning. City Pulse, from 6 March, credits Juan Macías Mateo as composer and MacGroove as producer.

In spring Br8kn Records becomes the main house, and the label roster names him expressly. Fracture, from 8 May, opens that phase with an original at 143 BPM and a PhoenixRising remix at 136 BPM. Funk From Below, FM Chaos, Kali Rage, She Breaks The Beat (26 June), Void (10 July), Stay Around and Eclipse (4 September) follow on the same label.

Illusion, released on 31 July on Flotic Records, arrives once the Br8kn phase is already underway. It is not the first label in the catalogue: Syncopated Soul comes first. Flotic remains a secondary outlet.

In October 2026 the map opens. IMΔN appears on 5 October on Samay Records, at 138 BPM in D minor, and places MacGroove on another of the strong labels of the current Spanish scene. 1974, on 9 October on Br8kn Records, at 137 BPM in G minor, is the most recent release.
