![[MP3] Mixes from DJ Red Alert's Final Show on 98.7 KISS FM](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4235650_lg.jpg)
In case you ain't hear , KISS-FM is merging with cross-town rival, WBLS . This is truly mind-blowing news and the end of an era as the long-running rivalry between the two stations finally comes to an end. What a fitting way to memorialize this news than by posting the final mixes by the legendary Kool DJ Red Alert who has been on the station mixing since 1983. Ego Trip has the science : After dropping a mix of hip-hop classics and original school breaks, an emotional [...]
I was a white suburban punk who discovered black radio. On our way to the City driving down 1 & 9 on the Pulaski skyway we would always manage to find this music fitting and tune into Kiss FM or BLS. Wherever DJ Red Alert was scratching records live on the spot we would stop on the dial. Probably where we first heard the Beastie Boys . This music got us in the mood for whatever else was to follow that evening. I didn't even think of recording his set because every Friday night we would find him spinning [...]
RIP Kiss FM . Mixes via egotripland .
Some sad news. Hip Hop legend and royalty DJ Red Alert yesterday signed off from the station where he made his name with his final mix for 98.7 Kiss FM last night. DJ Red Alert is ingrained in the history of Hip Hop. Not only did he host his infamous show on Kiss throughout the
As most of you already know, members of the JTTS crew often make cameo appearances on the Wednesday night hip-hop show Musenomix , broadcast on WMBR 88.1FM out of the dark dungeons of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( STREAM HERE ). For all you knuckleheads out there, that's the same thing as MIT , as in Good Will Hunting . It's an extremely smart rap show for extremely smart rap fans, and we have the school affiliation to prove it. While every week is unique over there - [...]
Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels Of A Tribe Called Quest I would say with much certitude that A Tribe Called Quest are the most influential, groundbreaking Hip Hop group the game has ever seen and it seems actor Michael Rappaport agrees wit that statement aswell. For his directorial debut, he followed Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, Ali Shaheed Muhammad and [...]
First is this 'Connection Mix' which master-mixes Lyn Collins' "Think" which was sampled by Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock's "It Takes Two" which was in turn sampled by Snoop Dogg's "I Wanna Rock.' Again, if you don't f-ck with this, I'm not sure you can credibly claim to really be into hip hop - LISTEN TO IT!!! Bonus: Download mp3's of the Red Alert Show with DJ Sammy B ( Jungle Brothers ) on KISS FM, 1988 HERE . [Old School Hip Hop [...]

Hello and welcome back (a 1 2, a 1 2) to The Mix Machine. Turning this week over to DAVO who shares with us... Back in the day, when we were all babies, we were FRESH!!!!!! With no years of laurel to fall back on, we still had something to prove - we were hungry and always crying for food... This slice of the DJ Red Alert pie is from a time early in his radio career on NYC's KISS-FM when he [...]
