One of those records that creeped up in a bunch of unexpected places but at the time, was a cult item. Many of which - including Beck's "Where It's At" - were apparently uncredited. The duo's electro-tech approach to rap got quickly buried in the coming avalanche of sample-dependent story-telling, but pockets outside of the mainstream were paying attention…as in, outside New York, for sure.
