Rainer + Grimm are a Canadian House Music production/DJ duo, formed by Rainer Millar Blanchaer and Jeff 'Grimm' Crake.

Rainer Millar Blanchaer and Jeff Crake met at Mississauga based recording school Metalworks Institute in 2013. Whilst attending class the two discovered their mutual appreciation for club music. Finding a common ground, the duo set forth completing the Live Forever EP under the alias We Were Born Electric, which was released on the label Dirty Duck Audio in 2013. WWBE was awarded a MuchFACT grant to direct and produce the video for Live Forever, featuring Saidah Conrad.

In 2014, Rainer and Jeff decided to rebrand their project as Rainer + Grimm. The rebrand was launched with various bootleg remixes, released on SoundCloud. The most prominent, a bootleg remix of Sam Smith's Stay With Me was widely received in the blogosphere, hitting #1 on Hype Machine's most popular list twice and was listed as one of 2014's most blogged tracks on Hypem.com. This success lead to Carson Daly playing the remix for Sam Smith during his first radio interview in LA. The next day Capitol Records decided to make the remix official and it was subsequently sent to Dance Radio in the US. It has since been shazaamed over 250k times and streamed over 5 million.
