After two EP's, he released his first album Tales of the Forgotten Melodies in March 2005, mixing hip-hop, downtempo and trip-hop, and a second, Hope & Sorrow in April 2007.

After being a host on a French radio in the Paris suburb of Mantes-La-Jolie, JC Le Saoût started the French Rap band La Formule in the 1990's. He created his label Lab'Oratoire in 1998 and produced records from La Formule as well as Break Beat compilations and a collaboration with the Swedish band Looptroop.
He began work on the Wax Tailor project in 2001, first appearing on a remix of Looptroop & La Formule's "Breathing Under Water". Wax Tailor's first EP Lost The Way was released in 2004 and features contributions from Charlotte Savary, Marina Quaisse, and Big Dada rapper Infinite Livez. Other musicians who have appeared alongside Wax Tailor include North Carolina Hip-Hop duo The Others, Ursula Rucker, Sharon Jones, Voice and A State Of Mind.

His second album Hope & Sorrow was nominated for "Best Electronic Album" at the 2008 Victoires de la Musique, a French music award ceremony.

Wax Tailor uses samples in his music as film directors use actors. His record is conceived as an orchestral movie between hip-hop and downtempo where Wax Tailor hijacks “The forgotten melodies” and tells a story of his own where each track is a sequence. In this large patchwork of numerous influences and multiple references to the seventh art, major names of the twentieth century music (Doris Day, Nina Simone...) could get a chance to meet Stanley Kubrick, Woody Allen or Alfred Hitchcock

Wax Tailor Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a story but that's why I'm here
To tell you story, so picture the scene
Let's begin

The turn of the day
When all music fools come out to play
Until the drunk turn of night

So many stories to hear
So many chicks to greet
And beautiful faces unseen

So many stories to hear
So many chicks to greet
And beautiful faces unseen

What they were building? No one could say

At the turn of the night
We all wonder and chuckle in the lights
Until every floor is soaked through

Such crazy behaviors
Such noise in our ears
Let's all change gears

Such crazy behaviors
Such noise in our ears
Let's all change gears

If we, you, really need to express something
But I don't know what it is I want to express
Or how to express it?

Before this night ends
I will mingle and find you
Until your hand is in my hand

So much sweat and laughter
So much for electric beats
And spark when you come so sweet

So much sweat and laughter
So much for electric beats
And spark when you come so sweet

Thank you for a lovely invitation
Good night it's been charming

At the turn of the day
When words become syllables
Will you remember our dance?

I ask myself that question all the time

At the turn of the day
When words become syllables
Will you remember our dance?

Ah, you remember that?
Something I should never forget

The song ends with the singer thanking the other person for the lovely invitation and saying goodnight.

Let's begin

The turn of the day
When all music fools come out to play
Until the drunk turn of night

So many stories to hear
So many cheeks to greet
And beautiful faces unseen

So many stories to hear
So many cheeks to greet
And beautiful faces unseen

What they were building
Well no one could say

At the turn of the night
We all wander and juggle in the lights
Until every floor is soaked through

Such crazy behaviours
Such noise in our ears
Let's all change gear

Such crazy behaviours
Such noise in our ears
Let's all change gear

I feel the need to express something
But I don't know what it is I want to express

Until your hand is in my hand

So much sweat and laughter
So much for electric beats
And a spark when you come so sweet

So much sweat and laughter
So much for electric beats
And a spark when you come so sweet

Thank you for a lovely evening
Thank you for a lovely evening...
Goodnight it's been charming

At the turn of the day
When words become syllables
Will you remember our dance

I ask myself that question all the time

At the turn of the day
When words become syllables
Will you remember our dance
