Valentine's Day falls on Friday this year which is the day I upload the radio show for the Soundcloud version. Perfect timing to do another yacht lounge episode, specifically for Valentine's, as it's been a while since I uploaded the last one inhere.

For those who are not familiar with the Yacht Lounge collection, it is my series of downtempo / lounge / balearic sets. I slow the 'f**k' down of the selected tracks to put you in a serene and relaxed state. This set cruises from 70 bpm to a max of 110 bpm throughout.

Run yourself a bubble bath, light some candles, pour a glass of wine, close your eyes, and enjoy where the Yacht Lounge will take you and your significant one. Careful tho -  this is baby making music 😍

You will notice that you won't hear me in this one. This is the kind of set that needs to run uninterrupted. Enjoy the slow grooves and let me know what you think of it. Back next week with our regular House and Deep House.

Happy Valentines!

The NDYD Radio Show EP376 - Yacht Lounge vol 9 - Valentine Edition

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.
