Larry Levan Artist Snapshot:

Larry Levan is a disco legend. As the founder of the hugely influential Paradise Garage nightclub in New York City, as well as its most popular DJ, Levan is considered by many to be one of the greatest DJs of all time. His ingenious mix of funk and disco provided the stylistic blueprint for the house, garage, and Hi-NRG genres, and became the musical foundation for an entirely new clubland experience. Levan was also a well-known remixer and producer and created glorious extended dance edits of disco gems that remain staples in many a spinner's crate to this day. A notorious party man himself, Levan succumbed to a drug-related heart ailment in 1992.
