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 Healing Experience Episode 2 - All About Love

Artist, Producer and DJ based in London, travelling and embracing cultural engagement.

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.

Recently, 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.
