Hotlife

Description

Montreal icon Tiga is back with his fourth album, HOTLIFE, marking a new era in his eternal journey towards techno of absolute freedom. Featuring collaborations with Boys Noize, Matthew Dear, Fcukers, MRD, Gesloten Cirkel, Paranoid London, Maara, and new Montreal prodigies Priori and Patrick Holland, HOTLIFE propels Tiga to the forefront of the music scene, unleashing contagious energy onto dancefloors: "When I activate the Catharsis Machine," declares the legendary singer-producer, "it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor, you're going to be free..." Reclaiming his place in the celestial firmament of contemporary electronic music has not been without its challenges, as evidenced by his captivating and universal story. After a fierce battle against a neurological illness he discovered and named "Vibe Fog," Tiga found himself at a crossroads: "At some point, I either had to buy the exoskeleton and sell my Virgin Megastore shares, or rebuild Tiga City from scratch, brick by brick, gargoyle by gargoyle." The result is a Tiga whom his long-time fans describe as "angelic" and "terrifying," giving birth to an album that captures the very essence of a trendsetter pushed beyond all human limits. "My decisions regarding artistic choices are exceptionally fast," Tiga adds. "Every second gained on creative choices was reinvested into the album's duration. 12 tracks. 60 minutes. Remarkable."
