  • Bear Funk go back into Hibernation image
  • Bear Funk will release its next label compilation, Hibernation 2, in March. Run by DJ and producer Stevie Kotey (of Chicken Lips), Bear Funk is an outlet for disco-flavored house, often with a Balearic tinge. It's a regular home to artists like Max Essa and Ilija Rudman, as well as Kotey and his various collaborations, such as the Kotey Extra Band. Hibernation 2 features many of these usual suspects alongside a few newcomers to the family, such as Downtown Party Network and Lasterton & The Blast Crew, the latter of whom are currently working on an LP for Bear Funk. Also included is a previously unreleased mix of one of the first tracks from Bear Entertainment: "Ossians Cave" by Mudd, who runs the label Claremont 56. The CD combines previously unreleased tracks with selections from Bear Funk's catalog over the past two years. Tracklist 01. Downtown Party Network - Get a Life 02.
