Dive into the sound that’s got the electronic music world buzzing, and discover why “SILK SCARF” is your next party funk workout playlist essential.

The Genesis of a New Electro-Pop Classic: Tiga Meets Fcukers

“SILK SCARF,” released via Turbo Recordings and Secret City Records (December 5, 2025), is the result of a chance creative spark that quickly ignited. The collaboration was born after Tiga and the rising NYC trio Fcukers shared a bill at Madison Square Garden and bonded over shared giggles at a legendary Brooklyn afterparty.

Tiga, whose career has always thrived on the fertile tension between underground techno and pop sensibility—a duality that cemented his fame with hits like “Pleasure from the Bass” and his iconic remix of “Sunglasses at Night”—knew he needed fearless partners for his new sound.

“This one’s tricky to talk about because it’s based on a fantasy genre I may or may not have invented. I knew I needed a fearless collaborator to bring it to life, and Fcukers were the only choice,” Tiga shares. “Their spirit reminds me of the Electroclash Summer of Love (Y2K – present). You think we cared about genre boundaries? Think again.”

The result is a track that features old-school cowbells, electro-edged grooves, and an utterly catchy chorus: “I’ve got a new hobby / I put silk on my body.” It’s a bold, fun, and utterly Tiga statement that rejects easy categorization.

A Taste of ‘HOTLIFE’: Tiga’s First Album in a Decade

“SILK SCARF” follows the long-awaited single “ECSTASY SURROUNDS ME” as the second preview of Tiga’s upcoming album, HOTLIFE. Scheduled for release on April 17, 2026, this marks the global icon’s first full-length solo work in ten years, promising a diverse and star-studded journey across the dance music landscape.
