Welcome to EP 248 of the NDYD Radio show. Pre episode to this week's gig where I'll have the privilege to share the decks with my long time friend Miguel Migs (@miguelmigs1) and Heidi Lawden at Sound Club in Hollywood. To give you a preview of the night I went very soulful with this episode and very "Migsie". I mean, I've been trying to jack his style and skills behind the decks for over 20 years now :) 

It's the sound you a can expect at Sound that night. If you are in LA this friday April 29 I hope you can come and make sure to be there at 10 as I am warming up the night.

The NDYD Radio Show EP248

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.

Yo! I'm Bop City and live in Chicago. 

I head up House on Paulina and Disco Deli (our studio space, events, promotion and DJ crew/community). I've been DJn since 2003, from San Francisco to Chicago. I love spinning everything from hip hop and house, to disco and funk. 

I'm fortunate to have played some dope venues [House of Blues, Spybar, Disco/Celeste, Cerise/Virgin Hotel Rooftop, Beauty Bar, Electric Hotel, F8 San Francisco, and The Anchor NYC (as well as The Double Door & Primary -- RIP), but also enjoys playing a house party just as much] For more of that, check out House On Paulina / Disco Deli (https://soundcloud.com/hop_chicago). 

I also host a weekly radio show called "They Reminisce Over 90s" (formerly, called Nostalgia & The 90s). A program dedicated to 90s music.
