The 2Bears take us all to church The 2Bears, the electronic dance music group composed of Joe Goddard of Hot Chip and Raf Rundell of 1965 records, have got a track out in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support. All proceeds from downloads of the record go towards the charity. Since events and ticketing company Skiddle approached the duo following the death of Skiddle staff member Chris Glaba, due to cancer. Glaba's favourite song was 'Church' by 2Bears and Skiddle asked the duo if they could start raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support via the track. Skiddle have started promoting the track, campaigning for it to chart to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. They aim to raise £100,000. The 2Bears' latest LP, The Night is Young, is soft and friendly pop-house with gentle lyricism and organic British- sounding vocals which soothe the decadence of club culture. Some of the album was recorded in South Africa. Which has given some of the synths a tropical house twist, whilst most of it flaunts soulful brass which gives the LP a northern soul sound. Rundell and Goddard have come a long way from their debut 2012 LP and sound more confident than ever on record and on tour. Fakear's latest EP is banging Bicep hit Corsica Studios for the Italo Disco Party ONE TO WATCH: FAKEAR After last year's successful Italo Disco Party at The Colombian, Bicep are doing it all again, bigger and better at Corsica Studios. Which hosts The Colombian, with three rooms of house bliss. Pre sale tickets go on sale on Wednesday 11th January at 10am, and general release is at Midday. A strong voice in electronic music to emerge from France in recent years is Caen-born Fakear. Real name Theo Le-Vigoureux, the producer makes atmospheric electronica with a house sway and deep grooves. He's been releasing since 2011 and as testament to his hard work and commitment as a producer, each release showcases a new direction of sound and a slicker technique than the last. His EP from last year, Vegetal, features a wash of world sounds which was composed at the same time as his debut LP, Animal. According to Le Vigoureux, 'Animal is nothing without 'Vegetal'. These are soothing beats to get you through long, cold commutes and into a kinder climate.
