Hi Fam! Last week I was a day late with the show and now I am a day earlier :) The reason why I am posting this now it's because it's a long holiday weekend here in the USA. It's the 4th of July weekend so a lot of people are starting their long weekend earlier and I wanted them to enjoy this long set for the holiday. It's a few minutes shy of 5 hours long!

I have to admit, also,  that I lied to you guys on the last episode.  I said then that I was going to be back with one of our regular shows this week but I changed my mind. We are returning to another live recording from the deiSogni art event that happened last week in DTLA and that I was involved in.

I am calling this part 2 but it really was or is  part 1 of my two days there. Besides playing at the main Disco party, that was last week’s episode - 395 if you want to check it out,  they also asked me to curate and play music during the actual art event while people were coming in and exploring it. This gave me the opportunity to take a deep dive, pun intended, into to the underground deep house genre and even into a little atmospheric deep tech. The goal here was for people to enjoy the tunes as background music while they explore the creativity of the artists that were participating in deiSogni.

Originally I wasn’t planning to put this recording up for streaming here on Soundcloud but after listening to it this week I was like ‘This turned out pretty good. I think the listeners will appreciate it.” - especially if you are doing something creative, working at your desk, or simply wanting to take a musical trip.

At this point I am done with any more live recordings (until I record a new one) so next week we are going back to our regular new tracks of the week and all that fun stuff.

There will be more deSoigni events coming up in the near future so if you are an LA listeners keep your ears open for next one cause I will definitely be announcing it on the radio show.

Let me know your thoughts on this long set and have a great week and a great 4th if you are in the USA.

The NDYD Radio Show EP396 - Ricardo live from deiSogni part 2, Los Angeles - June 26, 2025

After two weeks of live recorded sets it's back to the Venice studio for a new radio episode with new music and some throw backs sprinkled in for flavor. I have so much new music that I couldn't fit it all in this episode or we would have had another 5 hour set like last week ha ha. Gonna keep those cuts for next week and let you digest EP397 before. Enjoy the grooves!

The NDYD Radio Show EP402

No new music this week 😐 I did not have time to go through new releases or promos I received this week.

BUT - I dug deep into my digital crates 💯. As I mention in the show I've accumulated over 20K tracks since I started playing digital files so you would think I could find 25 or so cuts to fill a 2 hour slot, and I did 🙌🏼

The tracks I picked for this episode are not new but will feel new to a lot of the listeners. In my opinion, these were overlooked when they came out and are still timeless and can certainly rock the dance floor.

EP-403 visits the last 30 years or so of House music that accompanied us when we were clubbing and going to undergrounds in the last 3 decades.

Thank you for checking it out and let me know in the comments how you feel about this episode and if I should dig in the crates like this more.

Enjoy and see you back next week.

The NDYD Radio Show EP403

Welcome back to the our corner of the underground. This week, as oppose to last week, there is only new music. Tracks that have come out in the last month or so and promos that will come ouI  soon at your favorite musical outlets.

EP-404 leans heavy on the Garage House side of the spectrum (hence the cover picture) with some Deep House also thrown in for additional flavor. 

Hoping this makes you want to go out and dance like it did to me when I recorded it. 

Enjoy!

Hello dear listener. EP-405 is here with a mix bag of tracks and promos. No pun intended. Some are new (that I didn't get a chance to play last week), some are newish, and some are nostalgia but in a different form than you expect.

Thank you for returning to the show and let me know below what you think of this week's episode and of some of the gems that might surprise you.

Enjoy and see you back next week.

The NDYD Radio Show EP405

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.
