Once again MUSIC BOX RECORDS pays tribute to François de Roubaix with the
original television soundtrack composed for Christian-Jaque's mini-series À
VOUS DE JOUER MILORD (1974). This French spy story presented in comic book
style was broadcasted on TV on November 1974. It tells the adventures of
Hubert de Pomarec (Henri Piégay), alias “Milord”, a retired spy called back into
service to foil the abduction of the new army tank AMX 30 by a gang of crooks.
This complete CD edition offers more than one hour of unreleased music.
Mixing pop and electronic tones, François de Roubaix wrote catchy tunes
sustained by an orchestration as sophisticated and fresh as ever. He produced
the entire music score in his personal home studio on the Rue de Courcelles
and used an 8-track recorder for overdubbing. The EMS VCS3 synthesizer
provided him a broad range of sounds, which he used in different combinations
in his experimental lab.
Strongly appreciated by the electronic pop scene and even beyond the musical
genres, François de Roubaix is one of the most eclectic French soundtrack
composers who geniously experiments the music to the screen.
