Volumes 1-7 are a much better choice - take your pick.,
By Alan Taylor "Music Addict, Pop Culture Guru, ... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hotel Costes: Best of Costes (Audio CD)
This is a generally well assembled selection from the Hotel Costes series, however, it lacks the thoughful arrangement and mixing that make the series a true gem. The transitions between songs are clunky though not jarring, and rather uninspired - but then again - this is a best of compilation, so it's exactly what I expected. I suggest that anyone interested in this item pick one of the original seven volumes and enjoy... they're all excellent choices. The one major reason to buy this disc is for the "exclusive" Madonna remix unavailable elsewhere. If you're a Madonna fan like I am, Stephane's remix of "What it Feels Like for a Girl" is well worth the price of admission, however it feels like a marketing ploy (very well executed, mind you) to get an extra buck or two out of people that own the whole series already but want the Madonna track.

great downtempo collection,
By number16 "tess" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hotel Costes: Best of Costes (Audio CD)
i don't have the other hotel costes cd's, but this collection is lush, stylish, and mellow. if you like chillout electronica with a european twist, then you'll enjoy this compilation. the first song, sympathique, doesn't fit the chillout genre, but is a great campy french edith-piaf-like song. the madonna remix is great as well. my favorite song is "surround me with your love" excellent groove. perfect music to unwind or to listen to as you work.

interesting choice...,
By HarpoMarx42 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hotel Costes: Best of Costes (Audio CD)
Stephane Pompougnac's (best of...) compilation of the Hotel Costes series has a few definite good choices on here (Adore, No Communication/No Love, London In The Rain) but some of the songs don't seem to qualify as 'the best', such as 'Clementine', 'Surrond me with your love' and 'S.O.S.' which are not that good (that's just my opinion) I say that 'IN BLACK OF NIGHT'(COSTES 6), 'PONGER STAR'(COSTES 5) and 'PLEASE DON'T LEAVE'(COSTES 7) should be on there instead of the other 3. Ah well... it still pretty good!
