Anne Lacoste
DJ & PRODUCER
with a flair
for architecture
Toronto | Montreal
Growing up in Montreal’s underground nightlife shaped my emotional sensibility and attuned me to the power of sound. Living in Amsterdam for three years deepened that connection, immersing me in a global current of electronic music. Now based in Toronto, I’ve been carving out my voice in a demanding scene while finishing an architecture degree that’s sharpened how I think about space, rhythm, and composition. To me, architecture and sound speak the same language; both requiring structure, emotion, and intention.
I come from a musical background, which shaped how I hear, feel, and approach sound. I have a very strong and distinct affinity for nostalgic, melody-driven music. I grew up listening to artists like Moderat, Jamie xx, Radiohead, and James Blake — all thanks to my older brother — who shaped my musical taste, introduced me to electronic music and still influence my productions in some way today. Everything I create is driven by intention. I approach production the same way I build a set: as storytelling. That's why I always start with a melody. For me, it’s the most important element, and everything else follows. I’m committed and focused on crafting a refined sonic identity.
I aim to create music and sets that leave a lasting impact and connect deeply with spaces and crowds that truly resonate with the energy I bring. I want to evolve steadily in my craft, grow as an artist, and find the audience that connects with my sound. I also want to play alongside DJs who’ve shaped me as it’s where I feel I belong.
