Owen McCoy is a progressive house artist from Newry, Ireland, quickly emerging as a standout name in the melodic underground. Known for his deep, emotive sound and immersive DJ sets, he blends atmospheric textures with driving energy—creating music that connects as strongly on the dancefloor as it does on a personal level. Releases like “Comet From Kuiper” and the standout “Apollo 84” on JOOF Aura, part of John 00 Fleming’s JOOF Recordings, highlight his ability to craft powerful, evolving journeys.

His passion for music began early, shaped by a deep love for early 2000s trance and progressive, as well as the iconic In Search of the Sunrise compilation series. These influences helped define his ear for melodic storytelling, atmosphere, and long-form musical journeys. At just 13 years old, Owen started learning to DJ, developing a natural feel for flow, energy, and progression.
