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!!!

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!

This video marks the end of Peaches’ ambitious project to create a video for each track on the ‘I Feel Cream’ album!

‘Mud’ was directed by Vice Cooler and shot in hills of LA in a single 80-second take!

Ever noticed that Peaches’ birthday falls on 11th day of the 11th month?? Ever heard of the freaky 11:11 phenomenon -”the wake-up calls from the Spirit Guardians”; “the pre-encoded trigger and the key to the mysteries of the universe and beyond“!!??

According to paranormal numerology, the mysterious appearance of 11:11 on digital clocks, VCRs, microwaves and mobile phones represents “the physical and spiritual merging of your soul”!

Listen to Uri Geller’s prophetic words: “For those of you who have know that 11:11 was something special, we now need you to come forth into positions of leadership.”

So, let’s see where Peaches will take us next year- 1.1.11!!!
