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]
