Alain Goraguer - Faust: The Lost Recordings 1971-1978 '2024

Tracks list

French composer Alain Goraguer who first made a name for himself as a sideman
and arranger for Serge Gainsbourg wrote very few soundtracks, but amongst them,
the legendary La Planète Sauvage (1973) is an absolute staple of
France’s essential music.
During that same period of time, Goraguer wrote two rare and beautiful scores
using the same masterclass arrangements.
On L’Affaire Dominici (1975), Alain Goraguer creates a theme of great
melodic clarity from a palette of breathy flutes, clavinet D6 baroque textures,
wah-wah guitars and slow-paced drums that clearly reminds La Planete
Sauvage’s atmosphere.
The same can be said about the score of Au delà de la peur (1975) with its
descending clavinet melody, twanging bass riff, funky drums and flashes of
bended electric guitars.
