Passionate about music and technology, Youri Dominique has been evolving at the intersection of these two worlds for over two decades. First recognized as a member of the Rainmen duo, who left their mark on the Quebec hip-hop scene with the 1998 album Armageddon, he then turned his career towards change management and artificial intelligence.

His expertise has led him to support organizations in a variety of sectors -culture, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, utilities, agrifood, transportation, retail- in helping them integrate AI into their processes. He has also carried out AI strategic intelligence mandates for key players in the music industry, such as ADISQ and AMUQ.

In 2020, he founded HITstory, a platform dedicated to connecting and discovering artists. Today, with his partner GeniusXR, he is working on DJ Pool.club and the integration of HITstory into UVRSE, an app that will use AI to optimize music matching and recommendations. This project aims to open up new opportunities for creators and promote fairer access to music.
