Two Turntables and a Microphone

:: 14 ::

Beck
Odelay

To me, Beck embodies the "Alternative" label more than any other artist. I love the different sounds from low tech sampling to old school folk-hip hop... fusion, thing. Plus any artist that is non-compromising and constantly pushing music to new, original heights should be applauded. (The Information has the coolest album art concept of all time.) This album just works, and Where It's At is on the soundtrack of my life.

Tracks of Note:
Where It's At, New Pollution, Devils Haircut, High 5

I agree. There's no one like him.

It's sweet to see Beck back on someone's list! Best track on here is "Sissyneck": "Matchstick strike/ when I'm riding my bike/to the depot."
