Dead Trax celebrates its 5th anniversary with The Grooveyard: Volume 2

As Dead Trax turns five, it unleashes The Grooveyard: Volume 2, a robust 16-track collection that distills the essence of a label built on passion, grit, and an unwavering commitment to the underground. With a stylistic reach that spans breaks, garage, electro, and techno, the compilation reflects the ever-shifting landscapes of post-hardcore dance music. It’s music that hits you in the chest and lingers in the mind—a true body-and-brain affair.

Born in Bristol and now based in Seville, Dead Trax is shaped by two distinct yet connected scenes. That influence comes through clearly in this release, which showcases familiar names from the label’s roster alongside rising producers from southern Spain and the UK. The result is a sonic patchwork that’s as unpredictable as it is cohesive, steeped in the raw ethos of rave but unafraid to innovate.

Out April 23, 2025, on limited cassette and digital, DDTX003 isn’t just a celebration of past achievements—it’s a blueprint for the label’s future. Fiercely independent and proudly eclectic, Dead Trax proves once again why it's one of the most exciting forces in contemporary electronic music.
