Rome’s underground vixen injects her signature bouncy, bailefunk-infused spirit into her club-ready remix of Skream and Partiboi69’s frisky collab released earlier this year.
Victoria storms into the HARD Recs roster with a remix that drags Skream and Partiboi69’s “Pound Town” deeper into her sweat-slicked, Latin club-informed universe. The Rome-based producer—equal parts cult-leader, underground mother, and provocateur—has spent the last few years blurring the boundaries between hard bounce, baile funk, guaracha, and techno. Her version of “Pound Town” sharpens that signature into its most potent form yet.

Where the original leaned into unruly hedonism, Victoria magnifies its chaos with surgical intent. She pitches the vocal hook into a darker, more suggestive register, slicing it against buzzsaw riffs that warp the melodic DNA of Skream and Partiboi69’s original cut. The groove accelerates under her command: pounding four-on-the-floor kicks, Brazilian-leaning percussive flurries, and a barrage of rave-whistle overtones that never let the tension settle. Even in its wildest moments, the remix stays locked into a bouncy, hyper-physical momentum—designed not just to provoke, but to move bodies without pause.
Speaking to the bouncy panache she inserts into her rework, Victoria says, “The original ‘Pound Town’ is wild; it already goes crazy on its own. I just twisted it into my world, made it bouncier, cheekier, and added some baile heat for the dancefloor. I kept that unhinged energy but made it bounce and sweat a little more.”
The reinvention lands at a moment when the original track continues to dominate dance culture, amassing more than 2.1 million streams since its March release and earning BBC Radio 1 support from Danny Howard and Sarah Story, alongside coverage from Billboard, Electronic Groove, Only Techno, Daily Drop, Beat Selector Magazine, BROKE Mag, EDM Identity, UNDRTONE, Dusted Nation, Chromatic Club, Scoope, Find Your Sounds, EKM, I Want EDM, EDM Cave, and Urban Planet. Victoria’s remix builds directly on that momentum, pushing its unhinged spirit into a new, sweat-drenched register suited for the global rave continuum.
It’s a natural evolution of her creative rapport with Partiboi69—one that previously surfaced through her remix of his single “DADDY,” as well as a growing web of collaborations with MCR-T, Miss Bashful, and Annita. Off the decks, Victoria’s touring schedule has ballooned at breakneck speed: DGTL ADE, TimeWarp, Resistance at Drumsheds, Brunch Electronik in Lisbon, WeCanDance in Belgium, and Cocoricò in Italy, have all felt her rising gravitational pull. She now heads toward a high-stakes run that includes FCKNYE Festival and an extended headline set for Labyrinth at Venue MOT Unit 18 in London.
Victoria’s remix of “Pound Town” embodies the ethos she’s become known for: raw, cheeky, Y2K-coded nightlife energy rendered through the lens of a producer with a distinct, boundary-gnawing voice. It’s a bold HARD Recs debut from an artist reshaping modern techno into something sweatier, faster, and unmistakably hers.
Victoria’s new remix of Skream and Partiboi69’s single “Pound Town” is available on all platforms via HARD Recs.
