It's that time again :)

Best of 2024 through out the year on the NDYD Radio Show. I only had one rule for a track to be in this compilation, it had to played during any of the shows that aired in 2024. This is not about how many sold or were popular (or not) just if it made it to a show this past year.

The track didn't have to have come out in 2024 either (tho alot did). Some of the tracks are a few years old but still were worthy of the 'best' in the selection. This was the method to my madness:

- about 60 shows in 2024
- pick one or two favorite track from each show
- that gave me a total of about 150 tracks
- out of the 150 I narrowed down to 100
- split the compilation in two parts:
     1 to 50 and 51 to 100 [coming next week]
- the tracks have no rating in terms of where they appear. I just made sure that they all mixed good together especially by key.

This is just my personal taste for the selection of these tracks - no science behind on how I picked them. This set is overt 4 hours long so make sure you are taking a long drive or train ride if you want to  listen to the whole thing ;)

This is my Holiday gift and thank you note to he faithful listener of the show. I'm posting this on December 25 so it still counts as a gift for your loyalty and support of the NDYD Radio Show over the last 8 years. 

Happy Holidays everyone.  We gonna kick some ass in 2025 and I want you to be part of that journey. Enjoy and see you next year for part 2 :)

Faz - Live @ Pen&Pencil Manchester May 24th '25

For the second episode of the new "Mix Sessions," Pete Ellison donned one of his signature Hawaiian shirts, fired up the decks, and lit up the disco lights for a journey through multiple genres.

The new format of the show gives our Waltons a chance to showcase their unique sound over a two hour broadcast. The first hour packed full of glitterball grooves and disco magic, featuring three of his own new productions. The second hour shifted gears into house music, full of beefy basslines and a tougher, more driving vibe.

The session was meant to wrap up after two hours, but the energy was too good to stop. Pete commandeered the airwaves for an impromptu third hour, diving into old skool house classics and bangers from his vinyl days, before rounding off the night with a few funky breakbeat tracks.

The Rapture III x Work EDIT

"Only One" by Traffic Beats bursts with uplifting old-school house vibes — a feel-good blend of punchy grooves, warm chords, and sun-soaked energy. Driven by a steady, hypnotic rhythm and playful melodic touches, it’s the perfect soundtrack for dancing barefoot on the beach, golden-hour rooftop parties, or cruising with the windows down. Classic in spirit yet fresh in execution, this track captures the joy of summer in every beat.

Used

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.
