New video from Wax Tailor's new album "In The Mood for Life". The video features rapper Voice, using the train from Jean-Pierre Jeunet's feature film "A Very Long Engagement".

With his third album In The Mood For Life, Wax Tailor accheives is an organic landscape with orchestral accents that reconciles more than ever the groove of hip-hop and the melodies of pop. In just 4 years, his music has seduced a large audience around the world.

Who Is Wax Tailor ?
After spending two decades immersed in the culture of hip-hop, as a rapper, producer, label manager, graffitti artist, tour organizor and radio DJ, JC Le Saoult had aquired a global artistic vision. He put this vision to good use on the Wax Tailor project, and his first album Tales of the Forgotten Melodies was released in 2005. Word of mouth helped his orchestral hip-hop project meet a diversified audience of music lovers equally seduced by his rare grooves and cinematic moods. The album was distinguished as one of the best of the year by Playboy Magazine, iTunes and KEXP. One thing is for sure, Wax Tailor cares very little for labels. Be it abstract hip-hop or electronic, trip-hop or downtempo, his style defies categorization and is immediately recognizable, a mix of his passion for US beats, his sampling culture and a certain european lyricism. JC is a true sonic craftsman, designing music at his own pace, favoring quality over productivity. In 2007, he releases Hope & Sorrow, his second album, which sells over 80,000 sales worldwide. What follows is a year marked by honours, such as scoring the Cannes Film Festivals 40th Anniversary ceremony, a nomination to the US Indie Awards and the Victoires de la Musiques, the French equivalent to the Grammies, as well as a relentless touring schedule of over 200 dates, which takes him from Japan to Eastern Europe, and from the USA to South America. He also pens the title track for Cedric Klapischs movie Paris (released on September 21 stateside) and commits a few remixes, for Nina Simone among others. In The Mood For Life, his third album in four years, comes out on September 22nd and is no doubt one of the main attraction of this fall.
