PALMER vs POOKA (USA)

After Palmer and Pooka packed-up and moved to Seattle, they sold one of their cars in order to purchase all the DJ gear they needed in 1999. Trading large amounts of encouragement and support Palmer and Pooka have gained respect throughout the NW electronic community. Most commonly seen in Seattle, they have been spotted in Portland, Spokane, Vancouver BC, Eugene, the woods, the middle of the desert and napping at various rest-stops along the I-5 corridor. A few of their most memorable moments were playing alongside breakbeat masters: Aquasky and Masterblaster, DeeKline, Factor-E, and Disco-D to name a few. They are often asked if they always spin together, and yes, they do. They have had rare solo appearances but as Pooka stated, "I feel naked without Palmer there, and not naked in a good way."
