Beck

During the time of the "Peaches and Cream" performance for the "2 Meter Sessies" in November 1999, Beck was fresh off the release of his critically acclaimed album, *Midnite Vultures*, which had hit the shelves just weeks earlier. This album, known for its eclectic blend of funk, rock, and hip hop, showcased Beck's evolution as an artist who constantly pushes the envelope. The timing of this live recording is particularly intriguing—two years after his breakthrough with *Odelay*, Beck was already established as a boundary-defying musician. The performance at Felix Meritis offered a stripped-down glimpse of his sound, allowing the quirky charm of "Peaches and Cream" to shine. It’s fascinating how Beck's ability to mix genre-defying music with irresistible melodies resonates deeply, drawing in fans far and wide, making such live performances feel electrifyingly personal while also showcasing his artistic growth.
