  • Montreal main man Tiga has caused a stir with his unique upfront style. For his upcoming album ‘Sexor’ he is looking for the same reaction. The first taste of the ‘Sexor’ long player will come from his new single ‘You Gonna Want Me’ which was recorded at Soulwax Studios in NYC. The release has a distinctly international flavour to it. It is Co produced by Soulwax and features the vocals of old friend Scissor Sisters frontman Jake Shears. Tiga hooked up with the Scissor Sisters years ago, meeting for a first time when Tiga played Sonar and the band were still handing out demos. Jake then supplied vocals and Baby Daddy helped with production (in secret) on Tiga’s single ‘Hot In Herre’ and Tiga remixed the Sisters’ first ever release. It’s all come full circle The video features the Direction skills of Michel Gondry’s equally talented brother Oliver. Remixes come from Isolee (Playhouse) and Jesper Dahlback. ‘You Gonna Want Me’ his shelves on October 10. With the finishing touches still being applied to 'Sexor' expect a January 2006 release for the album. You can watch the full video clip at the specially set up site.
