BIO
Corin Ileto (she/her) is a Filipina-Australian electronic producer, performer and composer currently based in Sydney. In her work, traditional forms merge with hyper-digital sounds to create new imaginary realms and speculative futures drawing from ancient mythologies, science fiction, and her Filipino ancestry. Past releases include Wave Systems (2015), ‘Manifest’ (2019) and ‘Araw’ (2021).
Her acclaimed album ‘Lux Aeterna’ (2023) was described by the Wire as “a shapely and savage exploration of the post-human voice” and “eclipsing, intense world-building from one of Australia’s most fascinating producers” – Best Australian albums of 2023 by the Guardian.
Coming from a background in classical piano, she’s known for her signature style - performing intricate melodies on keyboard synthesizers encapsulated within a cinematic sonic world both ancient and futuristic, synthetic and organic.
She’s performed locally at Unsound (Adelaide, 2018, 2023), VIVID (Sydney, 2023), Dark Mofo (Hobart, 2023, 2025) and NON (Melbourne, 2024, 2025). Also across Europe and Asia: Palais De Tokyo (2019), Berlin Atonal (Berlin, 2023), CTM Festival (Berlin, 2022, 2026), W.O.S. Festival (Spain, 2023), Lunchmeat Festival (Prague, 2023), L.E.V. Festival (Spain, 2023, 2026) and Unfold x Festival (Seoul, 2024). Past international residencies include Cite Internationale des Arts via Creative Australia (Paris, 2024), Elektronmusik Studion [EMS] (Stockholm, 2025), Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts [BEK] and MONOM (Berlin, 2026).
Her recent works are sonic excursions into Filipino tuning and instrumentation. ‘Resonance’, an electroacoustic multichannel performance with the kulintang (Filipino gongs) commissioned and presented by Forecast Platform and CTM Festival (Berlin, 2025 - 2026). And her future folkloric live AV show ‘Diwa’ merging the kulintang, Filipino folk traditions and synthesis, along with visuals by VFX artist Tristan Jalleh. The Diwa AV show has been presented at NON festival (Melbourne, 2025), this year at LEV festival (Spain) and Fiber Festival (Amsterdam).
Corin is currently working on a new major performance/installation work developed recently via residencies at EMS (Stockholm), BEK (Bergen) and Arts House (Melbourne).
In addition, composition for dance, film, video, theatre and art gallery environments is a parallel arc of Corin’s practice collaborating with diverse artists including Asia Pacific collective Club Ate, Filipinx artist Justin Shoulder, Angela Goh & dance company Marrugeku, presenting work across major institutions including the Arts House, AGNSW, Carriageworks, Arts House & the Sydney Opera House.
She also hosts a bi-monthly show on NTS radio.
