Pomp… Read Full Bio ↴Hôtel Costes is the name of Stéphane Pompougnac's compilations.
Pompougnac was born in Paris to a psychotherapist and a dental surgeon. He spent his early life in Bordeaux.
His first job was as a waiter at the courtyard café of Hôtel Costes in Paris' Les Halles district, but his DJ debut occurred when he was 18, at such Bordeaux discothèques as Ubu, The Colony, and The Dream.
After finishing his studies and national service, Pompougnac spent six months in London before returning to Paris in 1992. In Paris he mixed at such discothèques as Queen, Folies Pigalle, The Locomotive, Diable des Lombards, and Privilège. One year later, he became the resident DJ at Les Bains et Douche, where he met Claude Challe. Reportedly, in 1997 Albert de Paname introduced Pompougnac to Jean-Louis Costes, co-owner of Hôtel Costes, where Pompougnac had worked as a waiter some ten years prior. This time, Costes hired Pompougnac to be the hotel's resident DJ. In 1999, Pompougnac published his first studio mix, Costes: France et Choiseul.
Pompougnac's second studio mix, Costes: La Suite outsold his previous release. After the mix's third track, "Sympatique" by Pink Martini, was used for an auto advertisement in France, Costes: La Suite sold more than 100,000 copies. Although Pompougnac published first two albums in France via Barclay Universal, his mounting success led to a contract with MSI, who published his third studio mix, Etage 3 (October 2000). His first three mixes collectively sold nearly half a million copies.
Pompougnac has published more than 20 studio mixes, and also DJs for the fashion award show Les Venues de la Mode. He has also performed for fashion shows by Gucci and Yves Saint-Laurent.

Hotel Costes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
please don't go
where are you going
conversations go over my head
isolation has an ugly face
Surround me with your love

i need your love i need your love
Hello i'm so lonely
and it feels
like a disese
come and stay
stay beside me
stay always forever don't go
Surround me with your love
understand me i need you now
surround me with your words
understand me
i need your love i need your love
i need your love
The lyrics of Hotel Costes's song "Surround Me With Your Love" express a yearning for emotional connection and understanding. The singer is reaching out to someone, asking them not to leave and to stay with them. The first verse suggests that the singer may struggle with feeling disconnected from others; their conversations are "over their head" and "isolation has an ugly face." The second verse reinforces the severity of their loneliness, describing it as feeling like a disease. The chorus acts as both a plea and a comfort, asking the person to be there for them to offer comfort and understanding through their love and words. The repetition of "I need your love" emphasizes the importance of connection and the pain of loneliness.
The song's lyrics embody a universal experience of feeling alone and seeking the warmth of human connection. The message resonates with listeners who are experiencing similar longing and need for emotional support. The song's slow and soulful melody contributes to the song's melancholic yet hopeful vibe, its hypnotic rhythm and laid-back groove giving the song a sense of intimacy and closeness. The use of metaphorical language, such as "surround me with your love" and "isolation has an ugly face," adds another layer of depth to the song.
