Beetlegroove
A MADCON Project — 2026

Where iconic
cars meet
vinyl culture.

The Beetlegroove is not just a turntable. It is a statement — a piece of furniture, a lamp, an emotion. Shaped like the legendary VW Beetle. Engineered for pure analogue soul.

Slow down.
Press play.
Feel everything.

In an era of endless digital streams and algorithmic noise, Beetlegroove is an act of deliberate deceleration. It invites you to sit with a record, to feel the warmth of analogue sound, and to let a single needle draw music from silence.

The shape of the Beetle carries memory. People connect the VW Bug to first cars, summer road trips, grandparents’ garages. Beetlegroove wraps that emotional weight in a modern, functional object — a turntable, a lamp, a conversation piece.

Sound transports emotion. Light creates atmosphere. Design tells a story. Beetlegroove does all three.

Each Beetlegroove wears automotive-grade gloss paint on a metal shell. Scalability begins with colour — from classic blacks and whites to vivid accent editions.

Where culture
becomes collectable.

The Beetlegroove platform is built for collaboration. Its silhouette becomes a canvas for film licences, artist editions and brand partnerships — each one a limited-run collector’s piece.

More than an agency. A mindset.

MADCON stands for mad connections — the courage to connect things that no one has connected before. We are a creative company that develops products, designs systems, and builds software and hardware. At every level, it is about connection: bringing people, technologies and passions together in ways that did not exist before.

Above all, one single principle runs through everything we do: the human being remains at the centre. Technology surrounds people — not the other way around. Everything we create serves empowerment: giving people more strength, more energy, more freedom to focus on what truly matters.
