Dancing Turtle Records promotes and produces music from emerging artists around the world. Our commitment to unearthing new styles and sub-genres of music, as well as broadening the audience of more familiar sounds, has created a vibrant base for musicians to showcase their music. Acts on our roster come from as far afield as Zambia, West Papua, and Brazil, as well as the freshest new talent in Europe.
Dancing Turtle acts as a not-for-profit organisation, with any label profits given to charitable causes. We are also concerned with the social benefits that music can bring, regularly organising consciousness raising music events for a variety of pressure groups and charities, channeling the power of music to help stimulate positive social change. This is also reflected in some of our releases too, like the recent Merdeka compilation, with acts from over 17 countries coming together to raise funds and awareness for the oppressed people of West Papua.
Keep your eyes and ears peeled for the recently released debut album from hotly tipped indie-folktronica act Amycanbe. We guarantee you haven't heard music quite as sweet and seductive as theirs before! Check the awesome Daisuke Tanabe remix of their track 'Your Own Thing' too. Also just out on the label is the second single from leftfield-electronica act Head and Neck Sessions, on limited edition 7" vinyl, and a single release from Hospital Bombers too!
Still to come your way in 2008 we have the debut EP release from exciting young UK producer Inkliing, album releases from Paradise Found and The Lani Singers, and remix work from DJ Trax and Yellowtail.
Our website, www.dancingturtle.co.uk is the place to head for more indepth information about our ever growing roster of musicians and forthcoming releases, as well as catching up on the latest goings on with our new online radio show. You can also find out information about upcoming artist and label showcase nights, download exclusive live sets from our previous events, and purchase music from some of the most exciting artists on the scene.

Miłość to bardzo ważna rzecz i bardzo ważny jest jej kierunek to znaczy że jeśli się ją ukierunkuje staje się tym samym w jakimś kierunku ukierunkowana ; a i tak piękno jest najważniejsze bo gdyby nie piękno nie byłoby kierunku aby do tego piękna dążyć, to znaczy bez piękna nie byłoby kierunków ; i na odwrót czyli do tylu też to jakiś kierunek, bo do tylu to ukierunkowanie miłości w tył czyli w kierunku tylnim, czyli nie w lewo jak w innym kierunku czyli naprzykład też nie w prawo jeśli to inny kierunek gdyż istnieją trzy kierunki biegania nago po rzezni: w lewo w prawo i w tyl . Lubie biegać nago po rzeżni i kocham piękno.
