2 Bad Mice

2 Bad Mice are a pioneering electronic music duo from the United Kingdom, comprised of Sean O'Keeffe and Simon Colebrooke. Emerging in the early 1990s, the group played a crucial role in shaping the sound of British rave and breakbeat hardcore, most notably through their association with the influential XL Recordings label. Their 1991 track "Bombscare" became a defining anthem of the era, blending frenetic breakbeats, rave stabs, and intricate sampling to capture the energy of the burgeoning UK underground scene.
