DJ-KiCKS: Tiga is a DJ mix album, compiled and mixed by Montreal DJ and record producer, Tiga. It is the twentieth installment of the DJ-KiCKS series, all of which are released by the Studio !K7 Independent Record Label.

The compilation focuses on the electro/electroclash movement, including remixes from Detroit-based ADULT. and dance-punk producers The DFA. The final track of the album is a cover of Felix Da Housecat's "Madame Hollywood", performed by Tiga himself.

A re-release of this compilation has also included Tiga's cover of Nelly's "Hot in Herre", placed between tracks 4 and 5.

The Red Zone remix of Adventures Of Stevie V's "Dirty Cash (Money Talks)" (track number 14) only appeared on initial UK promotional cds and was omitted from all commercially available editions of this album.
