I don't even know how to start this 'description' as it has been so long. Either way I'm not going to bore you with what happened in the last year or so but some of the regular listeners are aware that I am very lucky to still be doing the show and just to be here.  All that matters now is that I am back and this time for good. Meaning you will get the WEEKLY shows again.

Thank you to all those that have stuck by me. I know I have a lot of catching up to and I will with new episodes and of course the fantastic guest DJs that will continue to grace the decks.

EP-171 starts with a little tribute to one of my favorite House Music Divas, Kim English. We lost Kim on April 2nd, 2019 but her music will stay timeless and will keep her memory alive. I remember going to House Clubs in NYC in the 90s and dancing to her music into the wee hours of the morning. Her music always made me smile and put me in a good mood.  Starting this episode with Kim English made me go back to my House roots as I will always be a "House Head". But don't think I've given up on Edits, Nu Disco, Deep House or even Yacht Rock. Those styles of show will be coming up in the next few episodes. The NDYD Show does not get stuck only in one genre. The show's 'genre' is simply good music. 

Enjoy and see you next week for our next installment.

The NDYD Radio Show EP-171

I'm just a girl who adores Deep House. This music will always be in my heart ❤️ and it will never die!!! ❤️😊

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.
