About Loma Doom

Loma Doom, a true radio veteran and beacon of twisted and mesmerising sounds. Whether you experience her musical activities or those relating to her contemporary arts practice, curiosity is a key aspect gracing Femke Dekker (real name). As Loma Doom, her signature style revolves around electronic experimentalism, both for mind and movement, seeking the outliers, one that avoids linearity, towards a space where intuition and understanding meet. Actively incorporating styles predating the computer era, she sources from her fondness for freak folk, psychedelic and hardcore punk. This openness veered Femke into a category of respected deejays in the leftfield underground, having played influential spots such as Salon Des Amateurs, Meakusma and Dekmantel, amongst others. She currently holds radio residencies at Stranded FM (show: Daydream Nation), Radio Tempo Não Pára (Helter Skelter) and Echobox (Left of the Dial).

Parallel to spending her time behind decks, Femke has a multi-faceted practice as contemporary arts curator, moderator and educator. She is part of the core team of online arts radio Ja Ja Ja Nee Nee Nee, is a (guest) tutor at Sandberg Instituut and the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague and curates cultural programmes for festivals such as the annual Lente Kabinet in Amsterdam.
