The Best of Chicane: 1996–2008 is a greatest hits compilation album by the English music producer Chicane, released by Modena Records and Enzo Records on 6 October 2008.

Background

Tracks 3, 4 and 17 ("No Ordinary Morning", "Don't Give Up" and "Saltwater") are re-recordings as the original sound recordings were still owned by Xtravaganza and were unable to be licensed for this compilation due to a dispute between Chicane and Xtaravagnza boss Alex Gold which dated back to 2002. Chicane's previous Xtravaganza recordings, which had been distributed by Edel Records in 1996/1997, are here in their original form as Xtravaganza lost the rights to those sound recordings. The album was re-released in 2009 to include the song "Poppiholla" which replaced track 12. This song was released as a single on 13 July 2009.
