- Paradise_Garage abstract "The Paradise Garage was a discotheque notable in the history of modern dance and pop music, as well as LGBT and nightclub cultures It was founded by Michael Brody (its sole proprietor). Paradise Garage was located at 84 King Street, in the Hudson Square neighborhood of New York City. It operated from 1977 to 1987 and was the base for resident DJ Larry Levan. The club's name derives from its origins as a parking garage. The Paradise Garage's business model was largely inspired by David Mancuso's parties at The Loft: no liquor was served, there were no sales of food or beverages, and the club was not open to the general public.The sound system was developed, designed, and installed by Richard Long of Richard Long & Associates (RLA), and was said by those who attended to be the best in New York City at that time. The club has been credited for its influence on the development of the modern dance club as it is today; unlike other clubs of its time, the Paradise Garage was focused on dancing rather than verbal interaction, and it was the first to put the DJ at the center of attention. It was known for its enthusiastic, yet unforgiving nature if a performer was struggling. Musicians who have attended include Diana Ross and a young Madonna.Among those to benefit from what became known as "The Garage Sound" or "Garage Music" was Mel Cheren's own New York label West End Records. Among West End's successes were "Sessomatto" by Sessa Matto, "Hot Shot" by Karen Young, "Heartbeat" by Taana Gardner (remixed by Levan), "Do It to the Music" by Raw Silk, and "Don't Make Me Wait" by the Peech Boys (produced by Levan). West End Records folded for a number of years, re-opening in the late 90s and releasing one of Levan's DJ sets recorded live at the Garage.[citation needed]The building which housed the Paradise Garage is now a facility for Verizon Communications.[citation needed] As of 2008, the Paradise Garage trademark is now owned by Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC).[citation needed]".
