Ian Ossia is a British DJ originally from Leeds.

He began his DJing career in 1992 at the hugely influential and extremely cool 'Venus' night in Nottingham. Ian was snapped up very soon after this, with a residency at the super-club 'Renaissance' playing alongside top guests, such as David Morales, Danny Rampling, Sasha, John Digweed, Ten City. Very soon, Ian's name and reputation grew not only in the UK club scene but also globally. Touring with Renaissance, Ian's unique progressive house sound was being recognised worldwide - including US, Australia, Asia, South America and throughout Europe.

Recently, Ian has embraced the nu-disco genre of music. For Ian, DJing was always about playing new sounds that created a buzz on the dancefloor and the variety of grooves and huge lifts of this music lends itself to that beautifully. Ian is well known for his strength in mixing 2 tracks to give something altogether unique, and these technical skills really do come into play with the nu-disco genre of music. Ian's recently recorded nu-disco sets have used 3, sometimes 4 decks to create some super awesome, bouncy and unique mixes.

Ian is the founder of Downtown Disco events, playing alongside his favourite artists - Dr Packer, Late Nite Tuff Guy, Re-Tide, The Reflex, Natasha Kitty Katt & Babert.
