| Malka - Breakout |
Release Date: 20th January 2017
There’s always a frisson of
excitement when I receive a new release from Scottish artist Malka as she
always goes the extra mile with her music and the accompanying visuals. New
single ‘Breakout’ is no disappointment in either department as Malka (aka
Tamara Schlesinger) comes out looking like a character from the capital in The
Hunger Games but with a little more Bowie fantasy about her. Musically, ‘Breakout’
is a quirky, almost elfin tune that opens with just Malka’s vocals before a
tribal rhythm beats out a message to the digital fireflies swirling in this
genetically modified woodland glade. You see, Malka manages to create music
that sounds organic, laden with heritage and potentially as old as the hills
whilst simultaneously offering up something that feels futuristic, fresh and
original. I guess it’s like Star Wars – it feels like the future but apparently
it happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Fortunately for us,
Malka is happening right now in our very own Galaxy. So, strap on your
headdress and dance round the bonfire like tomorrow is years away.
