Intergalactic... watch when I land ❤️

Damn I wish I would have gone to this.  I did not know you were playing Compact Disco.

When are you coming to Sydney.....you need to find a reason

A day late but worth it :) Here is the live recording from my warm up set at the Compact Disco event where I had the opportunity to open up for the Chicago legends DJ Heather and DJ Colette. Also in the line up was Kenny Summit from the Bay Area. If you were there I hope it brings back some good memories and if you got there later or missed it you have the chance to catch up.

Back next week with a regular studio episode. Enjoy!

The NDYD Radio Show EP380 - Ricardo Live from Compact Disco - March 15, 2025

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.
