Bumps & Guilty Simpson – “Drums”

Apparently this banger of a track was meant to be a single promoting Bumps’ self-titled debut, which dropped three years ago on Stones Throw. But for whatever reason, “Drums” wasn’t pushed as a single and, unless I’m missing something, wasn’t on the album either. Stones Throw recognized that the world needed to hear this track, though, and just threw it online for free download along with a killer remix by Koushik. I love the straight-up, yet insanely off-base percussion on here, particularly the dusty sounding live kit. You can stream the original and remix below and then download them after the jump.
