Description
Larry Levan’s name is synonymous with contemporary dance music culture, his contributions are widely noted in many books and documentaries and in the memories of the lucky people who got to experience his phenomenal DJ sets at the now legendary Paradise Garage in NYC throughout the late 70’s until the late 80’s. His name is still mentioned with reverence today and he is listed as an influence by countless DJs and artists across the world. Not only did Larry hold down a residency at one of the finest clubs on the planet with his impeccable selecting and DJ-ing skills for a decade, he also lent his expert ear to many remixing jobs and production sessions, adding his touch to a slew of classic dance records that encapsulated the era; Tanaa Gardner “Heartbeat”, NYC Peech Boys “Don’t Make Me Wait”, Esther Williams “I’ll Be Your Pleasure”, Gwen Guthrie “Seventh Heaven” and Loose Joints “Is It All Over My Face?” to name a select few.
