First set for 2023! and so far it's my best of the year ha ha. All jokes aside I am really happy how this live recording from Station 1640 turned out. I got to play my favorite genres and bring energy to the dance floor on this first day of 2023. Day parties are really turning out to be my favorite. Maybe it has something to do with getting older. I also found out what this day drinking craze is all about. Quality tequila works in the daytime too ;) So does quality House Music and this first (live) episode of the year is full of it. I had so much fun playing and starting the year doing my favorite thing in the world.  Hoping you will also enjoy the music as much as the heads on the dance floor did.

Happy New Year dear listeners. Here we go again!

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.
