After successfully completing an 11 date North American Tour, Wax Tailor is back with a new single. This Train is perhaps the most beloved track of Wax Tailor’s new album In The Mood For Life. A genre blending masterpiece, the track brings together the talents of Rapper Voice and Roots singer Ali Harter.
Off their debut US album Priceless Concrete Echoes comes the single Sabotage from the pEneLOpe[s], a high energy cover of the classic Beastie Boys song complete with it’s own homage of the infamous Spike Jonze video.
In this video, The pEneLOpe[s] are gang leaders who incite their fans to wreak havoc in the city before improvising a concert. Directed by Renaud Cambuzat, with animation sequences and editing by Benjamin Putoud. this video was shot during a series of unauthorized flash mobs throughout Paris, with the unwilling help of the local police force. Renaud’s goal was to keep the over the top and chaotic feel of the original and import it in a glamorized version of Paris, capturing the pEneLOpe[s] exuberance and energy in the process.
The video is now Video of the Week on Daily Motion, and we invite you to check it out by clicking on the link above.
