As Leaks, young Melbourne producer/vocalist Thomas Guida melds the influence of groups like Mount Kimbie and Maribou State with his own subdued take on soulful pop. “Underthought” is Guida’s latest effort, the lead single to an as-yet-untitled EP set to drop via the Zero Through Nine imprint in November. Here, the artist begins by laying reticent vocals atop a a series of liquid tones and sparse, but jittery rhythms. It is after Guida’s vocals fade away though that his talent as a beatmaker truly shine through, as “Underthought” pieces together an infectious melody of re-pitched vocals which bounce atop the track’s lopsided skip.
