Maja Barløse, aka Fjer is back with her first new track since May's "Her Turn" - and it's an absolute cracker.

Working with Danish production duo Nector (Kill J), Fjer has made "Better" into a spacey, burbling jam pitched somewhere between pop and R&B - and it's also the perfect vehicle for the Danish singer's huge voice.

What starts as a glitch-laden track with pitch-bent vocals morphs quickly into an empowering club banger,vibing on synth brass, on the subject of expecting so much more from a relationship.

Of the track, Fjer explains "I discovered that someone I was in an on/off relationship with hadn't changed one bit. There seemed to be this notion that we were just gonna pick things up were we left off - so it was written to remind them of how much ‘better’ we could've had it, had they chosen me."

"Better" is out Friday via QUINTIC and a debut album will follow in 2017.
