Owen Sawyer

Owen Sawyer - Asheville, NC - Austin, TX (USA)
Owen always knew music would be a big part of his life. As a boy, classical and modern music were an influential part of his life. Throughout his entire educational experience, playing the saxophone was his main creative outlet. Being a part of symphonic and jazz bands was a high point early in life and a building block for later.

After moving to Orlando for college, he quickly introduced the use of synthesizers, drum machines, and turntables to his existing arsenal of more traditional instruments. It wasn't long until he was ditching classes to stay out all night – taking in one of the best club cultures anywhere. It was during his time in Orlando that he started to DJ and truly find his love in life. Starting with Drum and Bass and slowly moving to Orlando and Florida breaks, he honed his talent, and love of all thing electronic.

With residencies at 'The Haven' and 'The Grotto', he perfected his style of Drum and Bass and Breaks into an energetic blend of passionate electronica that seemed to force everyone listening to dance. Since 2001 he has been working with David Edward, the driving force behind Modern Beat Orchestra, on CD compilations and live shows around Florida and the south. While always knowing that producing was in his future and his experience in Florida would serve him well. The future is open to everyone with the will to achieve, and Owen is well on his way.
