| | Paradise Garage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | When the term "garage music" is used in reference to the Paradise Garage, it does not exclusively mean house music, although certain house tracks may be considered to be garage classics. | | | West End Records folded for a number of years, re-opening in the late 90's and releasing one of Levan's DJ sets recorded live at the Garage. | | | What became known as "The Garage Sound" or "Garage Music" led to the birth of West End Records, run by Garage co-founder Mel Cheren. |

| | "Live At The Paradise Garage" |
| | New York’s "Paradise Garage" club is one of the most influential and documented clubs in the history of dance music. | | | The album is a testament to a club that has never been surpassed before or since for the sheer intensity of emotion that it created. | | | Although there is much urban myth about the "Garage" and bootleg tapes of Levan sessions have surfaced, there has never been a live DJ set by Larry Levan at the "Paradise Garage" made commercially available before now. |

| | Garage Systems |
| | Monitor speakers, when required, are installed to satisfy the Disc Jockey's need to hear the system in the booth without the time delayed sound arriving from the main speakers affecting his sense of timing. | | | Maintaining a stable system, with adequate microphone volume to match the loud music, while the performer may walk to within 10 feet of a full range speaker stack, is no easy trick and the equalization plays a major role in allowing this. | | | Once the DJ has achieved the sound he wants in his headset, he can either abruptly or gradually bring the effect into play. |

| | The Garage is where the now commonplace combination of dance music technology with drugs to create large-scale magic was first perfected. | | | As detailed in Keep On Dancin': My Life and the Paradise Garage, the compelling autobiography of financial backer and West End Records founder Mel Cheren, 1979 was a watershed period in the story of dance music. | | | At the beginning of the year, Newsweek and Rolling Stone cover stories proclaimed disco here to stay. |

| | The Selekta West End Records |
| | It is fortuitous that there seems to be a shift going on out there, DJs and dancers are yearning for great, melodically produced, vocal records to balance the plethora of rather average tracks and pathetically cliché, drumroll/breakdown, "drama," house records. | | | As far as West End Records, Garage Records and the Paradise Garage, it will be the definitive site. | | | West End Records (the original owners of the Paradise Garage) had decided it was time to stop letting everyone miss out on all this great music, so they went through a tedious process to have 9 of Larry Levan’s classic remixes REMASTERED and the end product is now here for you: |

" Hip-hop producer Prince Paul says back in the mid-seventies when "there was no such thing as a hip-hop record," D.J.'s like Afrika Bambaataa "would spin disco records like Taana Gardner's 'Heartbeat' remixed by Levan just for the breakbeats. | | | "I was too young to go to the Garage," says house-music producer and D.J. Armand Van Helden, "but I know that the party was about breaking down barriers between music. | | | The real star of the club was its D.J., Larry Levan, who created the template for disco, and later house music, with the soulful, orchestral dance sets he played years earlier at gay bathhouses like the Continental Baths and eventually at the Garage. |
