The new album 'Avalanche" from Danish duo Quadron drops June 4 on Epic. Coco O. and Robin Hannibal, now both based in Los Angeles, unveiled the Motown-style first single "Hey Love" last month and followed it up this week with the release of the outstanding track "Better Off" which features Kendrick Lamar whom they worked with on his album 'good kid, m.A.A.d.city'. (Coco and Robin can claim membership of Copenhagen musical collective Boom Clap Bachelors whose track 'Tiden Flyver' was sampled by Lamar for his current hit "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe". )
