Tiga is widely known for his remixes: Tomas Andersson's "Washing Up", Scissor Sisters' Comfortably Numb and Soulwax's "E-Talking" but also for his covers of Nelly's "Hot in Herre", Public Enemy's "Louder than a Bomb", Felix Da Housecat's "Madame Hollywood" and Corey Hart's "Sunglasses at Night". He produces his own material, but has also worked with Zyntherius, Richard X and Jake Shears from Scissor Sisters. He has frequently collaborated with Mateo Murphy (with whom Tiga forms the duo TGV) and Jesper Dählback, who had produced many of Tiga's newer remixes. Tiga is also good friends with Stephen and David Dewaele from Soulwax, who produced about half of the tracks on Tiga's debut album Sexor.
In 2007 he formed a temporary duo with Zombie Nation, under the ZZT-name, they created a trash-hit named "Lower State of Consciousness", which also featured a remix by French hipsters Justice. He made remixes for New Young Pony Club's "Ice Cream" and The Killers' "Bones". He's also working with the Dewaele-brothers on his second album, which will feature more songs in the like of "Far From Home" en "3 Weeks", and less electro-banging sounds, according to the Tiga-podcast.

The lyrics of Tiga's "Sex O'Clock" seemingly refer to a rendezvous where one party is urgently waiting for their partner to arrive. With lines like "Your time is up" and "Don't wind me up," it could be inferred that the situation may be a bit tense. The repetition of "Tick Tock" adds to the intensity of the lyrics, as if building a sense of urgency.
The singer declares, "I've got the time," which could mean either that they are the one waiting and quite ready, or they are reminding their partner that they are "on the clock." The mention of hands adds another layer to the lyrics, suggesting both the time and physicality (i.e., touch).
Overall, the song seems to be a playful yet passionate declaration of desire. The repeated emphasis on time and the urgency in the delivery of the lyrics creates a sense of excitement and anticipation.
