July 23rd 2011–

Peaches flew out to Moscow’s ‘Afisha Picnic’ Festival to perform another of her renowned DJ/MC sets – bringing along her wicked dancers and a good dose of insanity to titillate the Russian crowd.

Luckily for us, a certain film director by the name of Kirril Vertyaev was on hand, shooting promotional videos for the festival. He contacted us recently to send us this beautifully shot live video of Peaches doin’ her thang!!

Many, many thanks to Kirril for sharing!

Sex… (I’m A) video

Here’s a little blast from the past…

recently we came across this video of Beyonce’s performance at the Billboard Award Ceremony – which inspired us to hunt through our video archive to bring you the cover of Berlin’s ‘Sex (I’m A)’, performed and produced by Peaches!!

This vid was made nearly 10 years ago!! And sure, she didn’t have no huge Billboard Awards budget back then, but here’s the punk rock approach!

Shary Boyle, who made the complete visual world using overhead projection, is an amazing and successful artist from Toronto.

Peaches – Stoppt Kastanienallee 21!

June 4th, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Bookmark and Share

Berlin, May 14th 2011:

Peaches took part in the Aktionstag on Prenzlauerbergs’s Kastanienallee in support of Stoppt K21 initiative, campaigning against the proposed re-developement of the Kastanienallee promenade.

Locals and business owners are opposed to new plans to narrow the Kastanienallee sidewalks in order to improve traffic on the street. Doing so would significantly damage the beauty of Kastanienallee- transforming it from a place of charming cafe’s and little shops into a busy street full of traffic.

The K21 project is an appeal to the District Office on behalf of the local community, voicing their opposition to the refurbishment plans.

Peaches performed a special free concert for the locals after she specifically asked to perform in support of her neighbourhood and to help to gather the 8000+ signatures needed to force a referendum on the issue. There were even a couple of unheard tracks there in the show – including ‘footsteps’ with Peaches ad-libing motivational lyrics about saving the ‘kiez’ [Berlin's 'hood'] .

Here you’ll find the petition (PDF) which you can download, get friends to sign and return to any of these places. There isn’t much time, so help spread the word to SAVE KASTANIENALLEE!!!

Peaches ‘Mud’ Exclusive Video Launch!

May 19th, 2011 · 2 Comments

Dear readers!!

So you thought you’d seen all the videos for the ‘I Feel Cream’ album… well, have we got a surprise for you!!

Check out this exclusive bonus video for song Mud! Directed by Melbourne-based artist Jasmin Tarasin and featuring the fantastic Barbie/Booby costume designed by Jess Daly!

Peaches met Jasmin last year when she was asked to perform in her video installation project: ‘Live: An intimate Video Study of the Art of Performing’. In ‘Live…’  over 20 renowned musicians were filmed performing a song of their choice in a stark and simple setting with no band, no staging, no light show – just their voice or instrument and the physical power of their delivery. Set on a loop, these projections were shown side-by-side on four large-scale screens.

Check out the post we blogged a while back about the project.

And that wasn’t the end of the Peaches/Tarasin collaboration! Shortly after, Tarasin began work on the music video for ‘Mud’ – even digging out a huge pit with a tractor in order to film near-naked girls wrestling in the mud!!

After some extra shooting in Berlin earlier in February, Tarasin’s ‘Mud‘ is now complete! Here it is!

Last time round we caught up quickly with Balloon Maestro Sean Rooney in the run up to the premiere of Peaches Does Herself in Berlin.

We found Sean hard at work in a corner of the theater amidst a great heap of balloons,  turning out massive set pieces in a frenzy.

You’ll have seen Sean ‘the wunderkind of the balloon world’ Rooney’s work before in the music video for Peaches’ song ‘More’. He created all the spectacular balloon props for the shoot – including the awesome balloon motorbike!!

We’re fast becoming overwhelmed with the huge of fan questions put to Peaches through her Fanbridge account (clocking as many as one thousand by now… ) and I can happily say that at last as we were able to sit her down (hey, you know how busy the lady is!) and bombard her for a good few minutes with questions from YOU the fans!

Remember, keep your questions coming in, keep them creative, and they will, eventually, get answered..
