The track, distributed globally by Animotion, features Maria Iankovskaia and Simon Streichbruder.
Maria Iankovskaia, known for her viral hit Sigma Boy, joins forces with Simon Streichbruder, the influencer who popularized the Sigma Boy track globally, for their first festive musical collaboration, the brand-new holiday single “Tick Tick Boom,” distributed globally by Animotion Media.
The track blends Christmas pop with vibrant dance energy, capturing the unmistakable dynamic that has defined the duo’s online presence. What began as light-hearted, collaborative TikTok moments between the creators has grown into a full seasonal anthem, bright, catchy, and designed to soundtrack Christmas celebrations and New Year countdowns around the world.
Maria, the popular singer, actress and blogger, continues to expand her artistic footprint through digital storytelling, music, and viral creativity. After the huge success of Sigma Boy, which entered the top 10 of the Billboard Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart, reaching number 7, Maria released the track Sigma Girl at the end of April in collaboration with influencer POLI. The song quickly became a viral sensation and, by May 16th, entered the top charts on Spotify in over 10 countries, gaining more than 100,000 streams daily. The Sigma Girl video has already amassed over 30 million views. Maria is now planning a major EU tour for 2026, building on the momentum of her recent hits.
Simon, one of Germany’s most influential digital creators, has built a reputation for turning spontaneous, humorous moments into large-scale trends that travel far beyond TikTok. Through his massive social media presence with 116.3M combined views across TikTok (68M) and Instagram (48.3M), he gained fame for playing loud music in public places, especially on trains, often performing backflips while carrying large speakers. He is particularly known for his “Sigma Boy” videos, which have sparked viral trends. Together with Maria, their creative synergy has shaped internet culture across multiple markets, making their musical holiday release a natural next step for their audience.
With cheerful melodies, playful winter vibes, and an energetic beat that feels instantly festive, “Tick Tick Boom” arrives as a joyful addition to seasonal playlists.
“Tick Tick Boom” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
