Vincent MaGee - Porte de VNPRT

Vincent MaGee (@vnprt) joins us on the PDX Black Rose Podcast. If you’re familiar with the local music scene in Portland you’ve probably seen Vincent around. Whether he’s djing, building relationships with artists and business owners, or coordinating events for DUG,he’s steadily on the move. Even during times such as these where work seems to have dwindled, as he puts it: “ we been bartering and we been broke before all of this.” When it all falls down, Vincent relies on the relationships that he’s built over time and valuing the community above making money.” A Portland native, Vincent is a proponent of sticking to craft no matter what other people think, say or show (via the internet). He remembers the days of the 90s and early 2000s of tape cassettes and Napster where music and craft were more cherished and not as “easy come, easy go” as art put on the internet these days. Given his tone, Vincent could come across as old fashioned. But ultimately what’s behind his critical gaze is a desire for quality and elevating community and the craft of art, music period.
