Comprised of Hot Chip member Joe Goddard and Raf Daddy (Raphael Rundell), the 2 Bears have remixed everyone from Cults and Metronomy to Death Cab for Cutie and Junior Boys, receiving radio support for their acclaimed 'Bear Hug' EP from BBC Radio 1's Pete Tong and Annie Mac, and praise from Sirs Elton John and Paul McCartney.

As the 2 Bears prepare to release their debut LP, 'Be Strong,' the U.K. dance duo have dropped off an exceptional 80-minute exclusive mix called 'Whatever the Weather,' which features recent jams by DFA labelmates Factory Floor and Henrik Schwarz alongside classics from Gino Soccio, Armand Van Helden, Davina and many more.

Hitting shelves Jan. 31, the 2 Bears 10-song debut 'Be Strong' draws their grooving, soulful sound further into the fringes of the dance floor, dabbling in dancehall and garage reggae and back again.
