London meets Toronto on this up-tempo deep house jam from iLL BLU remixing The Weeknd's latest effort, "Often". Initially emerging in the mid-00s UK funky explosion, the production duo have continued their evolution and now sits among the batch of house music risers. Coming complete with a flickering bassline and plenty of hi-hat action, iLL BLU's remix has received a massive thumbs-up from Abel Tesfaye. 

The guys revealed: "We knew we had something special when we finished the track. We wanted to stay true to the incredible vibe of the original version, but put our iLL BLU spin on it. Consequently, Abel liked it and has endorsed this version to be the only official remix."

Good on 'em. Listen to the track below.
