Beck - Where It's At

Music Appreciation

Beck's "Where It's At" debuted on May 28, 1996, marking the first single from his fifth album, Odelay (1996), under the labels DGC and Bong Load. Renowned for its distorted melodies and infusion of hip hop rhythms, the track stands as one of Beck's most celebrated compositions.

The accompanying music video, directed by Steve Hanft, mirrors Beck's trademark fusion of musical styles through a dynamic collage of eclectic visuals. Capturing Beck's idiosyncratic persona, the video portrays him engaging in a range of activities, from picking up litter along a highway to performing in a strip mall parking lot. Additionally, Beck pays homage to William Shatner's iconic rendition of "Rocket Man," further enhancing its eclectic appeal.
