Single: Gavin Turek - On The Line

Gavin Turek On The Line



Gavin Turek - On The Line


Info: It’s impossible not to become infatuated with disco-pop princess Gavin Turek. The LA Native is always clad in a hand-made 70s fringe dress (she has one in every color) and armed with the best dance moves you’ve ever seen. 2015 was an an unveiling of sorts for Gavin. After releasing her two disco tinged singles via iheartcomix/1nfity, she was named Spin named her Top Artist to Watch and her single "Don’t Fight It” as one of the best tracks of 2015. Late last summer, she released a mini album “You’re Invited,” a collection of sexy electronic tunes with longtime collaborator and electro genius TOKiMONSTA.

With an intro that would fit in perfectly on any of Prince's 80's albums, 'On The Line' sets the disco-funk mood immediately with Gavin Turek leaving the listener in no doubt that they are stepping into her domain now and they better be ready for what follows. The song conjurs image of Bobby Cannavale's character in HBO's Vinyl, Richie Finestra, strutting across a darkened dancefloor escaping his latest self-inflicted malaise. Her voice is pop pitch perfect and the music is a wonderful marriage of 70's disco and contemporary electro pop sounds which also doesn't merely ramble through the motions, a chilled out diversion appears in the final 40 seconds of 'On The Line' which suddenly leaves you hanging and wanting more delights to sample.
