Peaches’ homage to Donna Summer | ‘I Feel Cream’

ELECTRO COMPLEX | Today, XL released the new video single from Peaches new album “I Feel Cream” on YouTube. This track was produced by Drums of Death, Shapemod, and Peaches herself. Although, Peaches’ sound has evolved from electroclash to electro-pop, her subversive lyrics, in-your-face appearance, and raunchy air remain.

The song “I Feel Cream” specifically gives a nod to Donna Summer’s “I Feel Love.” If that sounds like an unlikely comparison, then remember that for many Donna Summer’s “I Feel Love” with its all synth back track, robotic base-line, and pre-house rhythms is considered one of the first and biggest electro hits of all time. Peaches definitely knows from whence she came — and at 40, Peaches is in great form.

The music video (I’ll find production credits soon) features Peaches alone, amidst a whirlwind of lights and transitional graphic effects, wearing thigh-high strappy boots and a Susan Sontag-esque swirl of white hair.

Peaches performs @ Terminal 5 in New York City on 11/14. Her track “The Boys Want to Be Her” is on the soundtrack for Drew Barrymore’s new film “Whip It!”
