10 Iconic Tiga Moments
We celebrate one of dance music's most colourful characters
Starting Turbo Recordings in 1998
1998 was a great year. Not only was Armageddon released on the big screen, it also marked the beginning of a musical revolution for Tiga. Turbo Recordings began as an outlet for Tiga to house his dancefloor rockets but even from early on, it was evident it would become far more than that.
His dedication to launching the careers of numerous musicians and producers has been pretty unstoppable.
The early days of the label saw early releases from Chromeo, Boys Noize, Brodinski and Duke Dumont. In fact, these artists called Turbo home and now they've all reached great heights since their appearance on the imprint.
The common denominator here, King Tiga of course. Hell, Gesaffelstein was an unknown entity before Tiga hand-picked him for super-success. His ear for talent and ability to nurture it is second-to-none and to this day, Turbo remains a hot-bed of techno and electro madness.
