Here it is. The last NDYD Radio Show for the year. Next weekend is Christmas and the weekend after NYD so the show will be taking a break until 2023. Not to worry though because you will get your money’s worth with EP 281. This episode clock’s in at 3 hours (!) so plenty of new music to keep you grooving til New Year’s when I am planning to return with a best of 2022 episode. Heck, this episode is good to go for your personal NYE House party because it’s pack with feel good Disco. I’m not talking about cheesy Disco that you hear at your friend’s wedding but proper House Disco that takes over you and guides you to the dance floor. This is not a coincidence because after attending the amazing LA performance from Dimitri from Paris last weekend in DTLA I’ve been dying to do a full proper Disco set for the show and that is what EP281 delivers. Amazing modern Disco artists like The Shapeshifters, Louie Vega, Dr Packer, David Morales, my evil twin Mark Brickman, and so many more make an appearance in the last show of the year.  

Another reason why this episode is heavily Disco influenced is because of an event I am playing for on NYD called DISKO BRUNCH here in Hollywood on January 1. I have the honor to share the decks with an amazing roster of artists like Tube & Berger, Colette, Mark London, Big Cee and more. It’s an NYD brunch so there will be food, drinks and DISKO! 

If you are in LA on January 1st come join us if you survived the night before.

See you in 2023 and hopefully at Disko Brunch.

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.
