Album Description:
The 2005 edition of the King of lounge compilations encores it's well established tradition of bringing the ultimate music of Parisian luxury and sophistication to the rest of the world. Stephane Pompougnac has curated yet another outstanding showcase of the most interesting tracks heard in the city's most sought out venue for relaxation and libation. The lineup for this volume includes sultry tracks from Brasilian electronica technicians Zuco 103, Soulstice, Mark Farina (featuring Sean Hayes), Mr. V, Michael Mayer, Pschent's own Flying Pops, Visti & Meyland and many more. This is the bellweather volume of the fall that launches the sounds that you will be enjoying all around the media for the Winter of 2005-2006, so skip the others and get what you need here first!

Best offering from Pompougnac for a while. Bright, flowing urban sounds. After having enjoyed the series to no. 5, I was somewhat disappointed with 6 and very much so with 7. Consequently, I nearly didn't bother with 8, convinced that the rot had set in. But I'm glad I took a chance on this one.

I purchased that Cd while in Paris. All the tunes are wonderful. Highly recommended for that person looking for something different to listen too. Can't wait to get some more of the Hotel Costes remixes.

We all knew that Costes' spirit faded away about the 4th volume. Anyway we didn't miss unity in other opus. Tracklistings were varied and elegant. #7 lost rang, and #8 make you feel sick.
Tracks by Tosca (good Heidi Bruehl despite it's been compiled in lots of places), Mark Farina and Parov Stelar remain to mythical moments of "La Suite (#2)" and "Etage Trois (#3)".
Mixing is bad and when it's good a pc mixed what the "Dj" could not mix (we are inured to Pompougnac's works) and you can perfectly guess where the cut of a track is.
Brazilian dreadful tunes (Zuco 103), hip hop for old snobs who can't throw their Jazzanova café-music CDs (Smooth) and music for nappy TV ads (Flying Pop's).
What about Hôtel Costes 60?

After purchasing costes 6 and 7, I had the idea that he series was heading into the realm of having every second track being skipped on my disk player. Thankfully this is not the case. The album starts off rather hypnotic with 'love machine' making you think you were deep into the night being mesmerised by a cajun beauty in some cajun backwater. the second track has the beat of something that I have never heard before and I recommend you pump this through your 5.1 sound system. here and there volume 8 delves back into into its deep house roots with spectacular effect teasing you with just enough of the deep stuff before launching you back into beat and rough and ready listening. Long may the series last.does not have the elegance of number 4 but certainly a step back in the righr direction. Bravo!
