Despite only being open for some ten years, NYC's Paradise Garage did more for dance music than almost any other club in history. Famed for its pivotal role in the worlds of dance, pop, nightclub culture and the LGBT movement, Paradise was one of the first clubs to focus its efforts on music for dancing rather than simply providing a venue for verbal interaction.
It's state of the art sound system and cross pollinated music policy, manned by the genius of Lerry Levan inspired the evolution of the clubbing experience. The idea for Ministry of Sound itself was born from visits to the New York hotspot, not to mention a myriad of other clubbing institutions.
To mark World AIDS Day, Ministry of Sound are bringing the Paradise Garage experience to the UK on November 30th, with all profits from the night going to the Gay Men's Health Crisis charity and the UK's Terrence Higgins Trust.
Inspired by the DJing wizardry of the Garage's residents Lerry Levan, Frankie Knuckles and Nicky Siano, selectors on the night come in the shape of NYC's very own Danny Krivit, Joey Llanos and David DePino, with 103 hosting sets from Kenny Carpenter, Justin Berkman, Horse Meat Disco (check out their mix above) and The Reflex.
This will be something very special indeed, a rare chance to relive one of the most prominent points in clubland history, all for a good cause. Get your A Night In Paradise tickets here.
