Larry Levan
Larry Levan stands at the crossroads of
disco,
house music and
garage music. He was the legendary DJ who for more than 10 years held court at the New York night club Paradise Garage. Quite a number of today's most successful producers and DJs credit their first exposure to Larry's music at the Paradise Garage as a moment that changed their lives forever and inspired their whole careers.
Francois K goes so far as to credit Larry with putting the dub aesthetic into dance music and being the first DJ to play a very eclectic and open-minded mix
of music.
