#kppc #drdemento #protohiphop
FM-KPPC, Pasadena, CA, provided the first underground mixshow with Dr. Demento in 1971. This is an aircheck from April Fools 1971. Dr. Demento called these mixes "Rock Solids". He then moved to KMET and continued mixing for 10 years, until Mr. Magic repackaged Dr. Demento's underground sounds for New York City and called it Hip Hop. Pasadena, CA, is the birthplace of Proto-Hip Hop. Mr. Magic, Fab 5 Freddy, and Flavor Flav are clones of Dr. Demento. Underground radio, along with edits and backspins, echo chambers, etc., can all be heard first on Dr. Demento.
