ASIA WAGNER

Host of BEAT | SIDE

With my immense passion for community radio, independent artists, and a constant thirst for new music, I found myself right at home at Portland Radio Project. I am a true believer that great music transcends genres, and I am constantly humbled by the sheer vastness of its world.

Growing up in Poland, my musical taste formed in the early nineties with influences from bands like Everything but The Girl, Massive Attack, and Portishead, just to name a few. Playing piano did not stick, but throwing rave parties in my dad’s warehouse and frequently attending local music events did.

While my thirst for new sounds greatly expanded my musical horizons, I have always been a beat lover at the core.

I curate music for Fresh Vibe and utilize my background in business to assist Portland Radio Project with revenue development.

I also host Beat | Side, where I share some of the best in electronic music, downtempo, trip-hop, drum’n’bass, nu jazz and more. Tune in every Sunday at 8:00 PM.
