Dusty Rainbow From The Dark is the fourth studio album by French hip hop producer Wax Tailor. It was released in 2012 on Le Plan [1] in North America and Lab'Oratoire for the rest of the world. It debuted on the French Albums Chart at #8 [2] and was nominated at the Victoires de la Musique 2013 for Best Electronic Music Album.[3]

A concept album telling the story of a young boy's discovery of the evocative power of music,[4] the album includes narrative interludes by Don McCorkindale, who participated in the radio version of The Avengers series.[5] Editing out the storyline is made possible by the inclusion on the album of 2 radio edits for the songs "Heart Stop" and "Time to Go". The album's cover, representing the story's main protagonist, was drawn by French illustrator Rebecca Dautremer.[6] Vocal guests on the album are Charlotte Savary, Ali Harter, Jennifer Charles, Sara Genn, Shana Halligan, Aloe Blacc, Elzhi, Mattic and A.S.M.

During the recording of the album, Wax Tailor worked with a team of video directors to create videos for each track that are projected as background visuals during Wax Tailor's live shows.[7]
