Mike Grimes and Pete Emes are those dudes known as Smalltown DJs. Based in Calgary, AB - they currently (since 1999) run a weekly known as Hai Karate. Hai Karate and the Smalltown DJs were born out of the ashes of old style block parties, punk rock shows at community halls and the early nineties rave scene. Hanging with these dudes on any given night you will hear funk, pop, dancehall, rock, hip hop, house, breaks, club and bmore. No pretension allowed, only party and dance. The duo has released several mix cds and vinyl 12"s over the past few years - garnering attention and accolades from the far reaches of the globe. They were featured on national television in April 2006 - on Much Music's Going Coastal. Circa Footwear has been sponsoring Smalltown's endeavours since 2000, helping to make sure they always look good. The Hai Karate Allstar remix Eps are being released in 2006 to celebrate the night's sixth anniversary.Over the past six years the Smalltown Djs have hosted and played alongside such artsits as Afrika Bambaataa, Lateef, Lyrics Born, Dj Assault, Jeru the Damaja, Tommie Sunshine, Chromeo, Mike Relm, Cosmo Baker and Dj Ayres ATrak, Low Budget, Diplo, James Lavelle, Kool Keith, Z-trip and Dj Radar, Fort Knox Five, and Maseo from De la Soul among many others.
