Watch: Tiga – ‘SILK SCARF (feat. Fcukers)’

The latest single ahead of Tiga’s upcoming album HOTLIFE, ‘SILK SCARF’, finds the Hardcore Storyteller reaching effortlessly into his bottomless bag of music, only to find new friends waiting for him inside. When Tiga formed a friendship with the renowned New York City band Fcukers – after both artists played Madison Square Garden on a cold winter night, shared some giggles in the greenroom, and created lasting memories at a now-legendary afterparty in Brooklyn – the spark for ‘SILK SCARF’ was born.

“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. Met them, loved them, called them. True story – please don’t repeat to anyone,” says Tiga on working with the rising EDM band. “Their spirit reminds me of the Electroclash Summer of Love (Y2K – present),” says Tiga. “You think we cared about genre boundaries? Think again.”

Once he got over their name, which deliberately misspells a curse word, Tiga engaged the white-hot NYC band in a collaboration that quickly took on a life of its own. What ensued was a writing process conducted with a creative energy and kinship that transcends eras. The result is ‘SILK SCARF’ – a dance record that takes easy categorization and defies the heck out of it. “If a weird record is good enough, it stops being weird and just becomes a party record,” explains Tiga. “And if you’re not here to party, then why don’t you go do some homework and get the funk out of my face?”

Following the long-awaited ‘ECSTASY SURROUNDS ME’, ‘SILK SCARF’ serves as the second pre-release single from HOTLIFE, Tiga’s first album in a decade. Scheduled for April 17, 2026 as a collaborative release via Montreal’s Turbo Recordings and Secret City Records, the project will also contain features from Boys Noize, Maara, and MRD.
