2008 installment in this trend-setting compilation series. Ten years ago , French DJ Stephane Pompougnac decided to bring together the tracks he played as the resident DJ at the famed Hotel Costes. A decade later, he brings the 11th installment in this excellent series. While continuing the tradition of the Hôtel Costes series, Pompougnac gives us a floral selection for this 11th volume. This acoustic and international mix takes us on a journey from Italy to Brazil without overlooking US and UK sounds. Moreover this new edition will be placed under the sign of discovery, with five exclusive new tracks from Variety Lab, Shazz, Stephane Pompougnac, Villa Black and a Costes' edit 'Enzo' by Kraak and Smaak. 17 tracks. Wagram.

Great groove (maybe for the younger crowd):
I really, really enjoyed this one. There's a lot going on, but that's what gives it such a great background, swanky hotel bar vibe. I think perhaps some of the other reviewers might prefer a "lighter" and more ostentatious sound. While this is groovy and a little silly. Still a great listen with a martini in your hand. : )

Stéphane Pompougnac, drop the ball on this one!!
I was expecting a lot better song selection!!
I must admit, most of these people are right:
I listened to a borrowed copy. The CD starts off promising, however it falls off right after the 6th track with songs you probably won't remember right after they are through. This is not a cheap CD. Since it's an import, you won;t find it for less than $15- at a discount on Amazon, and $30- at a music store. For that money I expected better. I have the first 10 volumes, but I won't be buying this one.
