The 2 Bears ➔ “Be Strong” (DFA Records)

The 2 Bears its the name of an indie dance duo composed of Joe Goddard of Hot Chip and Raf Randall, and they just released an album on DFA records.

It’s not quite indie dance, it’s a mesh of UK pop, dance, and grime, ready for the club and primed for some serious remixes. 

The 10-track LP stays together by never taking itself too seriously and never losing site of the concept - having fun. It’s a dance record that’s going to make you move, and just poppy enough to make you sing along without seeming cheesy. 

DJs such as Annie Mac, Erol Alkon and Pete Tong have all given the record support, and even Elton John is listed as a fan.“Be Strong” is out now on DFA Records. Buy it here.
