Village has stepped in to remix Toyboy & Robin's new track 'Jaded'.

Toyboy & Robin (fairly close to their actual names, FYI) have always been difficult to place. Picking up on the tattered, knackered remnants of 4/4 the duo also have a love of bass weight.

Recently, though, the pair have been hardening, placing an emphasis on a tech edge in their productions. New cut 'Jaded' is a blistering return, all frenetic tempos, flailing hi hats and skittering vocal samples.

It's euphoric – anything in the house universe will be – but there's a head down sense of drive here. This is city music, only Toyboy & Robin have swapped the froth of late 80s Chicago for the day to day grime of London in 2013.

Village has stepped in on remix duties. Tightening the bolts and firming up the screws, the producer brings out those tech influences on something which is razor sharp and built for dancefloor use.

Listen to it now.
