About This Item
François de Roubaix was a French multi-instrumentalist/composer and conductor of mainly (French) soundtracks for film scores, documentaries and TV series such as InchLes SurvivantsInch (1965) and InchTarif de NuitInch (1968). François de Roubaix composed nearly one-hundred soundtracks. In 1976 he posthumously won a César (similar to the American Oscars) for best soundtrack to the movie InchLe Vieux FusilInch (InchThe Old GunInch) directed by Robert Enrico, and starring Philippe Noiret, Romy Schneider and Jean Bouise. Notable in his style is his use of folk elements, as well as electronic musical instruments such as synthesizers and early drum machines. François de Roubaix is thus seen as a precursor of the French electronic music. Album Tracks 1. Les Survivants Résumé 2. Les Survivants Tango 3. Les Survivants Thème Sifflé 4. Sarlino 5. Cointreau 6.
