Originally aired July 27, 2020 on the d3ep Radio Network at www.d3ep.com

Welcome to EP-192 of the NDYD Radio Show. This week I have a very special guest take over the decks. Actually, I wonder why I haven't had Nico on before as we are really good friends and we've know each other for years. I think we met at WMC in Miami more than 15 years ago. Nico is incredibly talented as a DJ and producer. He embraces all genres of music  and hi music knowledge is next level. I'm sure you will agree after listening to this set that will definitely keep you coming back for more.

Give Nicolaas some love on

The NDYD Radio Show EP192 - guest mix by Nicolaas Black - Los Angeles

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.
