The NDYD Radio Show EP08 - guest mix by TIMUR CELIKYAY (Istanbul)

Ricardo Torres, a West Coast DJ, is known for blending deep, soulful house and disco with a smooth, sultry West Coast vibe. His music is crafted for true dance music enthusiasts, delivering uplifting, groovy, and sexy experiences rooted in the underground scene.

Ricardo’s DJ journey began in 1987 at a college radio station in Montreal, Canada, where he initially spun industrial electronic music. By 1988, he was introduced to Chicago House and was captivated by its fresh energy, changing his musical direction. In 1995, he moved to Los Angeles, where the city’s sun-drenched, soulful vibe and influences from DJs like Jay-J, Marques Wyatt, Julius Papp, Mark Farina, and Miguel Migs drew him toward the deeper West Coast sound.

In 2000, Ricardo pioneered sharing his mixes online, a bold and innovative step that garnered him international recognition. This exposure led to global performances and opportunities, while he also became a syndicated radio host on satellite and online platforms.

Around 2016 Ricardo partnered with Germany’s Nu Disco Your Disco (NDYD), a leading advocate for the Nu Disco genre. Their collaboration birthed the NDYD Radio Show, which Ricardo hosts weekly, showcasing top global talent and steadily growing a loyal listener base. For Ricardo, Nu Disco offers a modern bridge for the soulful West Coast vibe to resonate with newer generations.

While underground music trends have evolved over the decades, Ricardo’s passion remains unwavering: playing music that inspires people to get up, dance, and celebrate the timeless groove of house music.

From this point, im going to be uploading Hiphop music. I will occaisonally upload Jersey Club Music, comment on my songs and let me know what you want. Giving me feedback is great. 

Known as one half of the internationally successful indie-electronica duo Portecho, Tan Tuncag embarks on a solo project under the moniker “Cava Grande". Hailing from Istanbul, Turkey, this brand new project embraces a melancholic idm/electronica with the touch of warm analog synthesis and bouncy dark beats.

Elektronik proje ikilisi “Portecho”dan tanıdığımız Tan Tunçağ, “Cava Grande” adlı yeni bir projeyle karşımıza çıkıyor. “Melankolik ambient elektronika” olarak tanımladığı alanda müzik üretimine devam eden Tan Tunçağ, yeni projesi  “Cava Grande” ile dinleyenleri analog synthesizer sesleriyle ve karanlık ritmleriyle çizilmiş “ses manzaları”nda  bir gezintiye çıkarıyor.
