PROPER is a new Toronto-based production company dedicated to pushing the future sound of Breaks, House, and Drum & Bass. Focused on high-energy dancefloors, cutting-edge artists, and immersive late-night experiences, PROPER aims to bring a fresh wave of underground electronic music culture to the city.

To celebrate its official launch, PROPER brings together two iconic acts that embody the spirit of bass-driven dance music — the legendary Freestylers and Canada’s own Smalltown DJs — for a night built for movement, energy, and pure dancefloor connection.

Pioneers of the UK breaks scene, The Freestylers have been at the forefront of bass music for over two decades. Known for massive anthems and genre-defining releases, their sound blends breakbeat, electro, hip hop, and rave energy into explosive DJ sets that continue to ignite dancefloors worldwide. From underground clubs to major festivals, The Freestylers remain a driving force in global electronic music culture.

Hailing from Calgary, Smalltown DJs have built an international reputation for their infectious blend of house, techno, and bass-heavy grooves. With releases on some of the world’s most respected labels and performances across major festivals and clubs, their dynamic sets seamlessly bridge underground credibility with peak-time energy, making them a staple in Canada’s electronic scene and beyond.

Built for the heads who live for the drop, PROPER is about more than just parties — it’s about cultivating a forward-thinking community around breaks, house, and drum & bass in Toronto. With a focus on quality sound, curated lineups, and unforgettable atmospheres, PROPER is setting the tone for what’s next.
