The Official Website of the KIX MEN OF MUSIC THE SOUND! |
|||||||
Here are some of the actual sounds of "The Giant of the South". This is definitely a work in progress, and will be added to with your contributions.
This page is for commercials, promos, intros and closes, and air checks. Because WKIX was practically the jingle capital of the world, you can hear the jingles on a separate jingles page here. These sounds have been compressed two ways: The MP3s have been specially processed by your wise webmaster to simulate the sound of the AM radio we all know and love. They will play with QuickTime or Windows Media. You may enjoy your experience more with the free QuickTime plug-in, available here. There is also a version of each in RealAudio, which is a bit more modem-friendly for those unfortunates with dial-up connections. There are hours and hours of fun here! ENJOY! |
