Leftenent is the lush new solo project from Sydney go-to producer Antonia Gauci. Spawning from a series of late night experiments and industry encouragement, Leftenant’s debut single “Control” showcases Antonia’s savant-like ability to balance pop sensibilities with dark, experimental production techniques.
Co-produced and mixed by Jack Prest (Jonti, Sampa The Great), “Control” fuses brassy synths and slow-burning percussion with Antonia’s rich vocals, to arrive at something less explored by her electro-pop counterparts.

As the in house engineer/producer at Sydney’s famed Studio 301, Antonia has also had a hand in delivering some of the country’s biggest pop hits. With a credit list featuring the likes of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Will.I.Am, DMA’s, and Sticky Fingers, it’s no wonder that Antonia’s solo work is so bloody good.
