Dancing Turtle Records promotes and produces music from emerging artists around the world. With an ever growing roster of acts encorporating musical styles from leftfield electronica to indie-folk, world, trip hop and soul, Dancing Turtle has become a melting pot for emerging artists to showcase their sounds. It's all about music without prejudice. Acts on our roster come from as far afield as Japan, West Papua and Canada, 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.

Recent releases on the label include the critically acclaimed debut album from indie-folk act Amycanbe.
Also singles from Head and Neck Sessions, Hospital Bombers, Daisuke Tanabe and DJ Trax, all on limited edition 7" vinyl! Watch out for releases in 2008 from the likes of Elonious Funk, Inkliing, Daisuke Tanabe, The Lani Singers and Paradise Found

Enjoy the sounds! Peace + Respect x
