His innovative infusion of trance and techno redefines the hard house style. BK suggests the sound of hard house has definitely changed, and believes the sounds he creates represents the future of the genre.


RONSKI SPEED (Euphonic, www.ronskispeed.de) GER

His records E.O.S., Iris, 2Day E.P., Asarja (together with his label mate Mirco De Govia), Incognition (2005 smasher with Stoneface & Terminal), Follow You (the Sun Decade singles) and the groundbreaking "I'm Alone" were genuine club smashes and were hammered by the likes of Paul van Dyk, Tiƫsto, Armin van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, Above & Beyond and Ferry Corsten.

VLADO (Solid)
VICTOR H. (Solid) vs MARK LAI (ElectroBeat, www.marklai.com)

AREA TWO
- Breaks, House, Progressive, and Hip Hop / DMC -


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."

As many of you have voiced your opinion of ticket prices being too unaffordable for the past year, we've made this event as affordable as much possible as a way to thank you for the year 2005. Expect this event to sell out like every year and purchase your tickets in advance.

Cheers,

Solid Management

ps: Tickets will be in the stores this weekend or you may purchase it online www.ticketmaster.ca

Thats what I like to hear! Tickets to certain shows at Maritime lately are simply a cash grab and there's no way to justify it.

Insomnia looks like its going to be one banging party...

As for this price drama...
most flyers have a very valuable piece of advice written on on the back --> BUY YOUR TICKETS EARLY, if you have followed that advice you would now be smiling at your $40 dollar ticket.
So for all who are complaining about party prices, its not the promoters faults the tickets sold soo fast to jump to those higher prices. BOOO HOOO!!
With that said...
BUY YOUR TICKETS FOR INSOMNIA EARLY!!!!
