"Shake Yer Dix" is an electroclash song written and produced by Peaches, and featuring Mignon. The song was originally released as part of a double limited vinyl A-side along with the song "Operate". The song was later remixed by Tiga and rereleased as a single on May 24, 2004 in the UK.[1]

Critical reception

[edit]

Andrew Magilow of Splendid Magazine gave a positive review, commenting that "a buzzing keyboard riff adds to the fun, as the techno-laden groove gets you in the mood."[2] Conversely, Heather Phares of Allmusic opined that "the potty-grade sexuality of 'Shake Yer Dix,' could give the mistaken impression that Peaches is just rehashing her previous work with less creativity."[3]

"Shake Yer Dix" debuted and peaked at #97 on the UK Singles Chart, spending two weeks in the top 200.[4] In addition, the song debuted and peaked at #27 on the Belgian Dance Chart and spent a total of two weeks on the chart.[5]
