"I'm new to the Costes series. I found out the record looking for some electronic lounge music to add to my collection (which is mostly rock, jazz and latin music). I actually saw good comments on the whole Costes series, but what drove my attention to "la suite" was the addition of "Carnaval de São Vicente" by Cesaria Evora. Honestly, the mix on Carnaval is awesome, but the whole CD has many, many great tracks that will lift you up right from the start. I am not an expert on electronic music, but this is great music, period.
I love the mix of different styles in "la suite", from Jazz Music from German band De-Phazz, to PalaisMascotte from Rollercone, to the great tropical sounds of Carnaval de São Vicente to You're Love from Lovetronic, the album is a very enjoyable experience from begging to end. I can't wait to get my hands on the next CDs in the Costes series!."
La suite, the best of 7

"by accident I discovered this cd of Pompougnac, after I heard it, I got really impressed, the style,the music, all really good, then I got all the 7 Costes' series and also the "Living on the Edge" by Stephane Pompougnac wich are so good, but I still think that "la Suite" is the best of all.
If you are looking for a good lounge music, try with it, and become a fan of Hotel Costes"
Stephane Pompougnac doesn't get any better than this!

"I have all of his collections by now, and this is the one I keep coming back to. Airy, romantic, urbane, delicious, it always makes me smile. Hotel Costes 9 is also great, and individual selections off of the rest of the series are also excellent. But this is my favorite of them all."
