Metaphorically speaking, surf’s up for the Montreal-based artist, Tiga: still riding the wave of success he caught from his tracks “Bugatti” and “Let’s Go Dancing,” he shows no sign of slowing down with “100,” his new collaboration with German DJ/producer Boys Noize. The Turbo Recordings release consists of two versions of the “100” track (an original and a dub mix) alongside a track titled “Jam#1.” Similar to Tiga’s track, “Bugatti,” a vocal sample in “100” lists luxury items (cars, shoes, my wheels, my rings, my Moogs, gold chain says ‘Romeo,’ etc.). Are Tiga and Boys Noize using “100” to point out how Western society’s focus on material goods is shallow? We’ll leave that for the listener to decide. What we do know is that this collaboration will be played extensively at clubs and rooftops the world over this summer.
Listen to the “100” release below and be sure to check out Tiga when he plays in D.C. at Flash at the end of July.
