Today, San Francisco’s Benito is issuing a new EP of bass-minded boom-bap, I’m Busy (artwork above), and has wrangled recent Bay Area transplant Devonwho to inject some funkiness into one of the effort’s tracks, “Shakes.” Starting things off in the darker regions of skittering, futuristic beats, Devonwho eventually transforms this rework into a funky production, thanks—for the most part—to a handful of warm chords and a percolating synth bassline that runs on a playful grid as the drum programming starts to resemble a 2-step-style break. After giving the remix a listen, you’ll find a preview of the I’m Busy EP, along with the complete tracklist, after the jump.
