The 2 Bears are a London-based musical duo formed in 2009 composed of Joe Goddard (of electronic band Hot Chip) and Raf Rundell. The duo produces original material amalgamating various styles including 2-step, house, hip-hop and soul. The dynamic duo released their first album back in January this year and already have their second big release – a 2xCD mix album – prepped for imminent listening.
Above is the artwork for this new musical delight and we adore the graphic print that is as vibrant as it is inspiring. Needless to say they are a some talented and busy bears indeed.
Industry critics offer various descriptions of The 2 Bears’ sound including, ‘pop-hip-house’ and ‘rave garage’ but categorise them as you wish upon listening to this five minute mix comprised of songs from their new mix album ’1 Love’. Enjoy the sampler below:
