Larry Levan is arguably the first superstar DJ. In the 80's, he became a legend on the dance floor at the Paradise Garage in New York City for his ability to move the crowd into ecstasy with his selection of music and marathon sets. The cult of the DJ and dance music then traversed the globe, revolutionizing the dance floor and uniting cultures with its new electrifying sound of pumping beats and elevating crescendos. Suddenly DJs were playing to crowds in the thousands, then tens of thousands, and finally to over 1.5 million at the Love Parade in Berlin, Germany. The DJs became gods and superheroes using their turntables and vinyl to inspire millions to dance with unabated joy. It was a revolution, and yet somehow still retained its cool underground sub-culture status.
