2 Bit Pie was an English electronic music group formed in 2005 as a collaboration between Fluke and many other musicians, some of whom had previously worked with Fluke, and others who already had significant experience within the music industry, such as Andy Gray.

The band's debut album titled 2Pie Island was released digitally on December 31, 2004. Later released physically on September 4, 2006. This was followed by a period of inactivity from the band's label, One Little Indian, before the singles "Nobody Never" and "Here I Come" were released in 2005. [1]
