Emelyne is a community pillar in Narrm. As an organiser, broadcaster and club DJ, her arc is a slow burn rise that can be tracked alongside the expansion of Narrm’s sound, its dance floors, and what people are willing to move to. As a fan, she’s one of those people you could bump into at any show, giving the music its due attention. 

She started DJing nine years ago, and for the last nine years has been co-host of that Monday night World Service broadcast of pirate radio energy piped into Narrm’s airways – The Blend on PBS.

Fabulous Diamonds are the long-running (nearly two decades) duo of Nisa Venerosa (voice, percussion) & Jarrod Zlatic (keyboard, digital arrangements). Uneasy and understated chamber songs for the neo-feudal age.
While in the past their music has drawn from a wellspring of dubby post-punk and bubblegum-minimalism (with album releases on Siltbreeze, Alter, and Chapter Music) their current approach takes its cues from twentieth century art song and contemporary sound design; tenor vocals and choralesque keyboards play atop sparse, muffled rhythms and ambiguous soundscapes.

Anthony Pateras is a composer, pianist & electroacoustic musician active since the late 90s. His practice spans concert works, piano performance, acousmatic diffusion, film soundtrack, psychoacoustic experiments, percussion ensemble, as well as playing in the bands Sulla Lingua & PIVIXKI. Diverse in scope, he has made records with avant-metal icons (Mike Patton, Stephen O’Malley), worked with major orchestras (Los Angeles Philharmonic, BBC Symphony), performed with free jazz legends (Paul Lovens, Han Bennink), soundtracked distinguished writers (Sylvère Lotringer, Christos Tsiolkas), sculpted musique concrète (Jérôme Noetinger, Valerio Tricoli), sonofied visual artworks (Slave Pianos, Yves Netzhammer) & composed for string virtuosi (Richard Tognetti, Erkki Veltheim). Having cultivated singular languages in the Pateras/Baxter/Brown & North of North trios, he remains committed to piano improvisation as a method of assimilating instrumental practice with his compositional thought. His electronic work traverses multiple rhythmic disciplines to synthesize polyrithmia with timbral otherness. His work is broadly published, including albums on John Zorn’s Tzadik & Peter Rehberg’s Editions Mego. Among countless international engagements, he’s been commissioned by INA-GRM twice, increasingly integrating acousmatic techniques into his global compositional strategy. This can be heard on his 2023 solo albums \*Two Solos\* (Futura Resistenza) & \*A Dread Of Voids\* (Another Timbre). Recent releases are \*Sulla Lingua's ON\* (Improved Sequence, Italy, 2024), and the soundtrack to \*Reise der Schatten\* (Hallow Ground, Switzerland, 2025). \* \[Soundcloud]\(https://soundcloud.com/anthonypateras) \* \[Bandcamp]\(\[Bandcamp]\(https://anthonypateras.bandcamp.com))

In the fifth and final edition of the 2024 ‘Liquid Architecture Presents’ series, we showcase two artists who have made significant contributions to the Naarm/Australian music landscape; Aviva Endean and Emelyne Khor. With an ever increasing repertoire of expanded techniques and interactive approaches to music performance, Aviva Endean will present new work exploring breath, wind and the anatomy of the clarinet in relation to microphones. Aviva’s performance will be assisted by the proficient sound crafter and musician Pat Telfer.

J X E, is a collaboration led by Emelyne Khor (The Blend PBS), featuring Jarrod Zlatic (Fabulous Diamonds, Line Music). The duo leans into both Emelyne and Jarrods extensive knowledge of recorded music new and old to extract a world of sounds, speculating a futuristic music with various and hybridized reference points.

Ornamenting the two key performances, Third Space and Anthony Pateras will perform in a duo together for the first time, and Siri Sirasith will open the night with recently developed work for modular synthesizer.
