This is a timeless Masterpiece!📀💿📀

Larry levan will never be forgotten never DJ’s today think that pressing a button and think that there DJ’s music is best heard on vinyl on turntables that’s right that’Larry

Relight my fire you’re love is only my desire

Thanks Larry Kevan for the good music I’ll never forget it I loved dancing that was my shit I didn’t care about the stars in the paradise Garage dancing was my favorite pass time

Thanks Larry levan for the opportunity to listen to house music the best in show history I’ve listen to Donna Summer and fell in love with all the legends thanks for the good vibes and good times Larry levan one of the best DJ’S in history because he took regular albums and mixed them up with three turntables and mixed summer and many other legendary bands dam if I had the opportunity I would open up a new paradise Garage with the hottest DJ’S around New York and many other places live and Dance until the end of time

We have a real treat today. Over 2 years ago we approached one of the men who responsible for turning us into disco fiends. We really didn’t expect to receive a response and when we did we were both surprised and enthused. This man was Greg Wilson. Not only did Greg take the time to give us one of our first guestmixes but he also spent an hour on the phone to us giving us a really in-depth insight (below) into the scenes history and his origins as a Dj. Suffice to say we have the utmost respect for Greg who has always taken to time to ensure people accurately understand where these timeless tracks all came from and whats keeping them relevant.

Greg recently came down to play at one of our parties in London and has very kindly given us the recording of his live set to use as his second guestmix for us. We think you’ll agree that it cements his position as both an adventurous selector and a talented Dj. There is no tracklist for this one but that’s half the fun.

BBC Legends Of The Dancefloor - A Tribute To Larry Levan Paradise Garage NYC by Lenny Fontana

BBC Legends Of The Dancefloor - A Tribute To Larry Levan Paradise Garage 2nd Anniversary Tape 1979

Ode to Larry Levan

Larry Levan, the dancefloor's guiding light,
In Paradise Garage, you took flight.
With vinyl spinning and beats so divine,
You made us move, you made us shine.

On this day, we remember your grace,
Your music still lights up the dancefloor's space.
In the heart of New York, you made us believe,
That love, in the music, we could achieve.

Larry, you're gone, but your spirit lives on,
In the classics you played till the break of dawn.
So let's celebrate your groove and your soul,
With a mix of your magic, making us whole.

To the legend, the DJ, the Garage's king,
Your legacy in our hearts will forever sing.
Larry Levan, in our memories, you stay,
As we dance to your tunes, on this special day.

All tracks are selected and mixed by @thefunkassassin with Love.

Second edition of my special “Fingerman ♥'s” DJ mixes showcasing on individual artists, edits and record labels. This one is a homage to Greg Wilson, one of the main reasons for myself getting back into disco again over 10 years ago and inspiring me to take up editing and producing in the first place. Here’s a selection of IMO his finest tracks and edits working alongside Derek Kaye, Peza, Henry Greenwood and his son Che that span the genres of funk, disco, acid house and nu-disco. Enjoy!

Respect to GW x
