Are you looking for good, positive vibes?
Sometimes you can’t predict that someone’s going to be your favourite Dj’s by solely the singles they’ve released. But it can take a one-off track to intrigue you, something different you hear that tickles your ear drums, ignites a curiosity, puts you in a mood. Then you dig a little deeper and discover - Canadian, esp West Coast bass with a heavy reliance on funk and club sounds, is kind of your thang. That’s what’s gonna get you into the whole collective of underground houses heads, the introductory lesson of appreciation for dj’ing in general.
Driving around Vancouver my friend introduced me about 12 years ago to the duo that would invetiably introduce me to a particular brand of electronic music that would shape my tastes going forward. I listened to Bad Behaviour, Lovin the Vibe, and Blow and I couldn’t get enough of it. Cheeky lyrics “find me in the party with the ravers", and I was hooked.
The duo, Mike Grimes and Pete Emes, are based in Calgary, Alberta. They offer the kind of sets perfect if you want to just groove out - make space for yourself on the dancefloor, and enjoy.
