What a pleasant surprise this week that was not planned or expected. NDYD's head honcho, @krissantiago, sent me a new set he had just finished. He wanted me to have it for a future show but I decided to have it up right away for couple of reasons. The main, and most important one, is because it's so good. If you have been following the show for a while you know how talented and what amazing music selector Kris is. This is certainly not his first rodeo on the show as he as been a regular guest since the show started in 2016. Secondly his timing could have not been better because my computer where I do all the mastering of the show, artwork, uploading to SC, etc decided to take a dump. I really believe this was going to be the week that I was going to break my commitment to the program. Along comes Kris with his new set. This bought me time so I could go the Apple store and get a brand new M1 Macbook Pro. It was time to replace my 2016 machine. Either way, back on the program (no pun intended) and thank you Kris for not making me break my stride.

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.
