Mark and Josh created a platform that would not only showcase the talents of DJs, creatives, and artists but also breathe life into the hidden gems of world music that rarely grace the mainstream airwaves. We believe our city's rich musical heritage and culture wasn't represented anywhere authentically as other city's are through independent radio like Amsterdam, New York and Barcelona, almost a looking glass into what's going on in the city and culture.

We created a space where artists, both established and emerging, could share their craft with the world. Our aim was to raise the frequency, stimulate thought, connect our city's creative community and drive change through the universal language of music.

SVARA has a commitment to diversity. Our platform opens the door to music that transcends boundaries. Music has the power to unite us, It knows no borders, no divisions, and no prejudices. The radio serves as a testament to our vision of connecting cultures and taking the listeners on a journey across continents, allowing them to immerse themselves into a wide selection of world music
