The NDYD Radio Show EP13

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.

EN Bringing musical references from the past and fitting them into current times is not always an easy job, but the duo Arcade Fighters manages to carry out this task with mastery.

Since its formation over a decade ago, Golden Kong and Selecta Brasil from São Paulo, Brazil have released EPs, edits, and collaborations, and have accumulated more than 500 thousand streams across all platforms.

With one foot in the past and one foot in the present, the duo brought the aesthetics of French House and Disco House using Brazilian 70s and 80s music to demonstrate that they can still be explored beyond their original form.

PT/BR Trazer referências musicais do passado e encaixa-las nos tempos atuais nem sempre é um trabalho fácil mas a dupla Arcade Fighters consegue desenvolver essa tarefa com maestria.

O projeto que possui mais de 10 anos de existência e tem como integrantes os paulistas Golden Kong e S.lva, conta com diversos lançamentos entre EPs, edits e colaborações além de acumularem mais de 500 mil streamings em todas as plataformas.

A frente de seu tempo mas com um pé no passado, a dupla foi uma das pioneiras em trazer a estética do french house e disco house utilizando a música popular brasileira como base, mostrando que nossa música ainda pode ser muito explorada além do produto original.
