MALKA - Flashlight
Reception
With Schlesinger playing every note on the album herself, self-recording and self-producing, Anatomy of Sight is a deeply personal piece of work. - Snack Mag
Oozing plenty of synth goodness, new single No No No is a joyous piece of perfection. This was literally a colourful explosion with added carnival esque beats which will have you marching on the spot. Then you had Tamara’s candy coated vocals and those exquisite lyrics about the NHS which left me utterly captivated. - Music Is My Radar
There’s not a moment where the experimental nature of MALKA doesn’t shine through with gorgeous hooks and melodies that are given time to work their magic in ways we could never have anticipated. - TuneFountain
The melodies Schlesinger weaves are often uplifting and vibrant, with the bouncy hook of single Taking It Back epitomising this by bursting forth from an otherwise restrained palette. - The Skinny
