“HOT WIFE” Single Artwork // DOWNLOAD HIGH-RES
And to those who might interpret the single’s lyrical content as mere bragging, Tiga urges us all to understand his message through the prism of Radical Gratitude and fostering new dialogues: "As for the lyrics*, all six words are based on my truth," he says. “Newsflash: only a small percentage of men are married to hot women and a lot of them are great guys like me. Why not listen to what we have to say?"
Tiga would like to make it clear that the song’s lyrics are in no way a reference to the swinging term ‘hotwife,’ which he only learned about six hours ago.
Following the long-awaited “ECSTASY SURROUNDS ME” and Fcukers collab “SILK SCARF,” “HOT WIFE" serves as the third pre-release single from HOTLIFE, Tiga’s first album in a decade. The project will also contain features from Fcukers, Maara, and MRD.
MORE ABOUT TIGA
Tiga, born in Montreal, is a globally renowned DJ, producer, and the creative force behind Turbo Recordings. His journey began in the vibrant chaos of the 1980s Indian club scene, where he developed a deep appreciation for electronic music’s transformative power. Returning to Montreal in the early 1990s, Tiga pioneered a new wave of nightlife, introducing innovative party concepts, guest DJs, and Montreal’s first rave, “Solstice,” in 1993. His relentless pursuit of musical excellence saw him co-founding the legendary nightclub Sona, creating a sanctuary for bold, cutting-edge dance music, while his label Turbo Recordings became a launchpad for numerous iconic releases in electronic music from legends such as Chromeo, Azari & III, Gesaffelstein, Duke Dumont, ANNA, and Charlotte de Witte.
There’s always been a fertile creative tension at the heart of Tiga’s music: on the one hand he’s the underground techno don, on the other, there’s a pop sensibility that enables him to write great songs. It’s this duality that makes him one of electronic music’s most engaging characters. He’s about as far from your faceless techno DJ as it’s possible to get.
As a producer, Tiga achieved global recognition with his chart-topping cover of “Sunglasses at Night,” a collaboration with Zyntherius, which became an anthem for electro enthusiasts. His remix credits include high-profile artists such as The xx, LCD Soundsystem, Moby, Depeche Mode, and Justice, solidifying his reputation as a master of reinvention. Tiga’s contribution to the prestigious DJ Kicks series showcased his eclectic style, while his original works, including the hit single “Pleasure from the Bass,” cemented his place in the pantheon of electronic music.
With his infectious creativity and a career spanning decades, Tiga continues to captivate audiences worldwide, shaping the sound of modern club culture. All the while, Tiga has toured the world extensively, playing legendary festivals and nightclubs such as Coachella, Sónar Festival, Berghain, Stereo Montreal, and Tomorrowland.
