Autrice-compositrice-interprète et productrice de musique électronique de Montréal, Dani Lewick cherche à créer un son imprégné du territoire, à partir d’échantillons sonores captés dans l’environnement. Dès la sortie de ses études en musique numérique, en 2021, elle se distingue avec sa composition Floe Edge, qui est sélectionnée pour la compilation Climate Soundtrack, concours lancée par le collectif Dj’s for Climate Action en partenariat avec Greenpeace. En 2023, Dani Lewick lance son premier EP, Light Past the Undercurrents, un projet électro-pop planant, alliant des influences house, downbeat et RnB, à des textures créées à partir de sons captés en forêt et aux abords du fleuve Saint-Laurent. En 2024, elle se joint à l’Expédition Bleue, avec la mission de capter le paysage sonore de la confluence du fjord du Saguenay et du fleuve Saint-Laurent. Dans un processus qui privilégie l'imprévisibilité et l'exploration, les éléments du paysage formeront les matériaux de construction de son prochain projet de musique électro-territorial.
