The 2 Bears

The 2 Bears are the duo of Joe Goddard & Raf Rundell. Both bring a wealth of musical talent to the table (Joe a founding member of Hot Chip, and Raf as Greco-Roman Soundsystem) and have a knack for making great house music.

While it may still be June, I think these fellas have made the biggest track of the summer! "Bear Hug" from their 3rd EP is everything I love about house music. Just try listening to this without smiling!

Has a great music video too:



The 2 Bears are also world class remixers. There take on Toddla T's "Take It Back" is one of those cross-over gems that reminds me of old school UK garage vibes:

Church, from their Curious Nature EP is another personal favorite. Such a simple, yet beautiful track - Their production skills really shine here. The layering of vocals are just epic, and really take the breaks to another level:
