Bold, joyful and ever-curious, DJ and producer Kamma’s creative
world is fueled by her sharp intuition and a solid musical
foundation. She draws inspiration from her roots as an
Amsterdam native, her Chinese-Indonesian heritage and a deep
familial connection with club culture. Kamma’s parents were
professional DJs in the Dutch capital’s club circuit in the 80s and
90s, and she grew up amongst their 30,000 jazz, funk, disco and
house record collection. Kamma’s musical education continued
at the iconic Trouw, where DJs mixed straightforward house and
techno with rarer cuts from virtually every genre. These
influences formed the blueprint for the experimentation Kamma
explores in her own sets, moving from warm uplifting house into
trippy, percussive techno and landing on all manner of euphoric
sounds along the way.
Ever loyal to her Eastside roots, Kamma co-created
Amsterdam’s first high fidelity listening bar Doka, alongside
frequent collaborator Masalo. The duo also runs the Brighter
Days event and mix series, which celebrates an open-minded
dance floor approach and platforms their local community as well
as legendary guests from further afield. In 2023 Kamma &
Masalo released a Brighter Days compilation on Rush Hour,
featuring obscurities, previously unreleased music from
upcoming talent, as well as their own K&M Edits.
Kamma has leant her sensitivity and keen ear to solo
productions
too, a natural progression from practising piano and jamming on
a Casio synthesiser as a child. Her debut single, ‘Snow In April’,
which featured on Antal’s Rainbow Disco Club compilation,
weaves abstracted electronics and ambient through transfixing
loops of downtempo synths. Now Kamma’s productions are
changing gears – with club-focused tracks on the horizon in

Her performances are set to follow suit, leaning more
heavily into an electronic aesthetic whilst remaining true to her
rock solid artistic foundation.
