- The London duo get Caribbean on a new double-mix CD.
UK duo The 2 Bears have a new mix compilation in the pipeline called 2 Bears, 1 Love.
The 2 Bears are Joe Goddard, best known as a member of Hot Chip, and Raf Daddy from Greco Roman Soundsystem. They've released a string of records together since 2010, including an album last year called Be Strong on Southern Fried Records. As the title suggests, their upcoming mix has a bit of Caribbean flare to it, with dancehall tracks thrown in among the house and disco selections and cover art that recalls old Scientist sleeve designs. Also included is an exclusive new remix of The 2 Bears' "Birds & the Bees" by UK veterans X-Press 2. The whole concoction is tied together by Raf Daddy's burly voice-overs. 2 Bears, 1 Love will be released on Defected sub-label ITH Records.
