“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?”
