@pbase36, how do u digitize ur tapes to the computer or cd, what program do u use? i got tapes from Hot97 from back n da day n old mix tapes from when they first came out n dont no what program 2 use or find 2 get online, than alot if u can help me.
@sam62273 For me, it's a convoluted process. I have my tape deck plugged into my computer with an RCA to 1/8 mini phono adapter cord from Radio Shack. I use Quicktime to record the audio, and then Soundedit (for Mac) to edit and enhance the audio.
There are simpler solutions. Just do a search for "cassette to MP3" and you'll see easier options.
@cdyssew - My college teacher(humanities) is 64years old (woman) and she says "old" is just a word to remind you of how you had it when you were "young".
She doesn't consider herself old, as my grandma is 83 and very healthy. I don't think "old" effects us very much, only if you let it.
yeah i did that shit too but this was when new york hip hop was at is peak it seemed to me that you couldnt wait to hear what was next and to brag to your boys the next day saying "did you hear this yet?"
They need to bring back a Hip Hop radio station that plays random tracks not just the commercial singles...For example; Mr Magic, Red Alert etc. Hip Hop overseas is where it's at, unfortunately here in the states, money and the quest for it has destroyed the culture!!!!!!!
This is great! Anyone have any full recordings of Red Alert's KISS show, circa 89-92 or so? The only recordings I can find are from much earlier. He played the best remixes! That's how I fell in love with the Pete Rock "Jessumen" remix.
there's another remix a lot closer to the original..maybe just an extended version..but that was the isht!!!! I need to dig this 12"...everyone was sampling that vega record.
I think Ed was doing this live at the radio station. That's probably why no one has this version...nice. I remember those days...MR Magic was running the stations in New York, and I would sit there with my hand on the pause button, cutting out all of the commercials. The first mixtapes...lol.
Very very good. Talent. Mudda furking wankstas i cant remember the last time i heard i decent hip hop tune played on the radio. Its lost the funk..............
Not so rare? I recorded this of KCMU, Seattle, WA. early 90's, but I did not know who did it, or that it was even a remix! My copy has more and the end, and runs a bit faster.
pbase 36, i used to do the same thing. i grew up in long island back in the eighties and every weekend i would record the hott new exclusives(mr.magic rap attack, red alert,even the college stations 89u).do you have the "get off the bandwagon" remix by epmd?? since you have this rare remix i was just wondering
Jabron, it's possible that I have that remix. I still have about 75 cassettes to dig through and digitize. I'll put that on my list, and post it if I come across it.
They sampled "Give it up or turn it loose- Jungle Remix" by James Brown. That song is popular with breakers.

I also taped the remix over the radio from WRAS in ATL from where I went to college.
The cassette I taped it on is priceless, 45 min of ridiculous early 90's hip hop.

I do - I also have recordings from the Marley Marl show. Unfortunately the tapes aren't in good condition :(
If I knew I would have to go back to those tapes for good hip hop I would've taken better care of them.
