Peaches Interview
Zin: What was your favorite cartoon as a
child?
P: umm, I really like old spider man, I like
the way they use the same scenes with different speeches. But you know when he
goes to the boss, you know, what’s his name? I forget his name. What is his name
you know? But it is the exact same scene but with different words. I like the
rependivness of that. But my second
favorite cartoon is bugs bunny, I think that bug’s bunny is a brilliant comedian
and an amazing character.
Zin: If you had to pick your favorite color
as a child what would it be?
P: I really don’t remember having a favorite
color as a child, it’s so weird but I just remember black being my favorite
color as a child, it’s weird but it’s true. It was never like pink or something
ya.
Zin: So you are currently on tour right now
for you last release fatherfxxker, could you tell me how your fans have been
reacting to your new marital?
P: ohh fantastic, they have been coming out
with beards like the cover of my album. They have been spray painting “shake
your Dix’s” on the back of there jacket. One girl had a Mohawk with father
fxxker shaved on the sides. Umm I don’t know , they seam to know all the words
to the whole album, and they all sing along.
Zin: What was your favorite thing about
working with Iggie Pop?
P: Just that it was Iggie Pop, and he is
just so cute and fantastic.
Zin: Why do you limit your self to the mc
505?
P: Well I don’t really feel like it’s
limiting because it’s got every Roland sound ever made, and I also use electric
guitar and live drums. I don’t really feel that it is limiting, the reason that
I used it on my first album exclusively is that I realized that if I used all
the same sounds for drums, base, and synth
all in the same machine, that it would actually be able to relate to
another better, and it would be easer for me to mix it. And because it was all apart of the same
thing and then I would just use stereo out put like left and right channel, so
it just made it more clean.
Zin: In the world of electro what do you
find the most influential right now that’s out there?
P: hip hop, missy elite, the
Neptune’s
Zin: If I got to look inside your cd player
right now, what would I find?
P: the gossip
Zin: Tell me what prompted you to start
making music in the first place?
P: umm, well it just kind of happened, like
a lot of things in peaches it’s just pretty accidental . I kind of got a gig
first before I was even righting music and then I was playing acoustic guitar,
and I ended up playing for like a year and a half for a week so I started
writing songs and then I moved from folk you know, to some jazz and then new
wave, and then punk, and a lot of my friends moved away, bust I still wanted to
make music so I got the machines and
just tried pretended that I was the drummer and the bass player and everybody
and I made music that way.
Zin: Are you working on any new marterial
right now?
P: yep
Zin: oh ya
P: ya
Zin: I look forward to hear it
.
Zin: I heard that your lyrics are discussed
as a part of the course curriculum at the University of
Toronto’s Queer studies.
P: yea, there is also one out in the
University of Arkansas , they just did papers on my album
actually, and the professor came and gave me the best
paper.
Zin: If you where in charge of that
curriculum what would you do with it?
P: it’s not really my interest, I am a
musician. ..umm. . so I don’t
know
Zin: What is one thing that you wish an
interviewer would ask you , but they never do?
P: they never ask me on a
date
Zin: ohhh ya. . .I see. . I see
