Before NDYD I used to be part of a DJ coalition in LA called the West Coast Collective (WCC). We were House DJs that mainly played Soulful and Jackin' but from time to time we would deviate to other styles that we loved. In my college days I was really into industrial and New Wave when I was a radio DJ in the college radio station but I was also a big fan of Hip Hop and especially G-Funk (imagine that).

Quite a few years ago, while I was still part of the WCC,  I made this mix where I went back to those days. A listener reached out and reminded me of it cause it was on other platforms online but no more. After much digging I found the original MP3 of the set I had done and here it is back again. Enjoy!

KELLEN DE VOS - GRAND SLAM

(Beat: Imagine a 808 on a snowmobile with a poutine bass drop)
Hook
Écœurant d’écureuil sur CNBC, osti qu’ça bull!
Un flash d’queue grise, ton portefeuille full!
Squirrel Indicator, 100 % pas d’trouble,
J’te fais millionnaire en mangeant des graines dans l’câble!
Câlisse, quand j’passe, les shorts chient dans l’pantalon,
J’ai des nuts plus grosses que l’portefeuille à Desmarais, tabarnak!
Verse 1
Janvier 2021, j’me gèle l’cul sur l’balcon d’la bourse,
J’fais un moonwalk su’l ledge, j’pète une crotte en 4K live, of course,
Reddit voit mon pelage, toute la gang pète une veine,
« GME TO THE MOON, on vend la maison d’la mère à Germaine! »
J’fais un twerk d’queue, le SPY fait +12 % en deux secondes,
Melvin Gabe Plotkin chiale en français dans l’fond,
« Ma femme va me laisser, j’ai perdu l’REER des enfants! »
Moi j’me garroche une gland, j’lui fais « Check ton ex sur Tinder, mon homme. »
Verse 2
J’revient l’lendemain, j’pisse sur l’lentille d’la caméra,
Jim Cramer fait une crise, « THE SQUIRREL IS BACK, SACRAMENT! »
Robinhood bloque les achats, j’me trouve un cousin à Montréal,
Y court dans l’centre de données, ronge un câble Bell,
Toute l’app crash, les Américains crient « FIX IT! »
Nous autres on rit en mangeant d’la poutine sur l’perron du Tim,
J’ai juste à shaker mon boule une fois pis c’est l’jackpot,
Ton 200 $ en calls vaut maintenant une maison à Mascouche, tabarnak!
Hook
Écœurant d’écureuil sur CNBC, osti qu’ça bull!
Un flash d’queue grise, ton portefeuille full!
Squirrel Indicator, plus fort que TA, plus fort que RSI,
J’te fais plus riche qu’un crypto bro qui a vendu son Shiba Inu en 2021!
Outro
Faque oublie tes graphiques, tes lignes de tendance pis tes wedges,
Quand tu vois mon cul poilu sur l’écran, tu loades la caisse au complet,
J’te fais millionnaire en une seconde pis j’te charge rien,
Juste un p’tit sac de peanuts au miel, sacrament.
Squirrel Gang Québec – on contrôle Wall Street pis Bay Street,
Pis si t’es short… ben bonne chance, mon homme, t’es fucké.
J’te drop une gland dans l’urnes à votes, peace out, crisse.

Funk Soul Brothers Part 5

Ricardo Torres is a West Coast DJ whose sound blends deep, soulful house and disco with the smooth, sun-kissed energy of Los Angeles. His mixes are crafted for true dance floor devotees—uplifting, groovy, and deeply rooted in the underground.

Ricardo began his DJ journey in 1987 at a college radio station in Montreal, later discovering Chicago House and falling in love with its raw emotion and rhythm. After moving to Los Angeles in 1995, he found inspiration in the city’s soulful spirit and from influential DJs like Jay-J, Marques Wyatt, Julius Papp, Mark Farina, and Miguel Migs.

An early pioneer of online mix sharing in 2000, Ricardo quickly gained international recognition, leading to global performances and radio syndication. In 2016, he partnered with Germany’s Nu Disco Your Disco (NDYD) to launch the NDYD Radio Show, a weekly showcase of modern Nu Disco and soulful house that continues to attract a devoted worldwide audience.

Across decades and evolving trends, Ricardo’s mission remains the same: to share music that uplifts, connects, and celebrates the enduring groove of house. The NDYD Radio Show airs live every Saturday on d3ep.com—1 PM in Los Angeles, 3 PM in Chicago, 4 PM in New York, 9 PM in London, and 6 AM Sunday in Sydney—bringing the West Coast vibe to listeners around the globe.
