by Stephan H. on The interior feels like a modern day interpretation of Art Deco. Where else would this make sense than in NYC? Waitresses in gold dresses and Louboutins. It's very over the top and decadent. Of course the price for the drinks is really the price to enjoy the scenery. Check out the bathroom before you leave. There's no door list in the afternoons from about 5.30PM to 8.30PM.
by Josphine Vidmar on While the thought of a club being one giant room might sound weird, this one will make you rethink that. Velvet is another club owned by AG entertainment, the owners of The Royal and Compound, so they usually keep their clientle pretty good, enforce a sexy and stylish dress code, and try to bring the bigger venues of all sorts to their place. So let's get to it! Location: Velvet is in a shopping center (that's right kids) off Chamblee Tucker. It's pretty easy to find, just get off and find the Mc Donalds before 285 and you're there. If you can't find a place to park, you're really really late or just parking inept, in either case you might have to settle for some over priced valet. But all in all it's fairly good location, the line is on the plaza's walkway so you don't have to wait in the rain or anything, and there's usually a good crowd on any given night. Design: Velvet Room is just that, one deceivingly large room decorated in glass chandeliers, red velvet, and of course the screens and LCDs of sound and video. As an employee of the company for light and sound, it's nice, good sound system without being quite so in your face as the Compound, and a slightly larger dance floor, which is the whole floor. There are several bars with plenty of arm space to stand there and people watch or catch en eye, and the multiple VIP tables and area are usually booked each night or available with a nice off the floor or over the floor view to see or be seen. As I said before, it's quite large inside and hosts a great night whether you're hunting, dancing, or watching. Music: Velvet, unlike Compound and Royal, plays mostly Hip Hop, R&B every night. So don't expect much on the euro, techno, house, rock type much, but that's just the style of place it is. They still play the usually Top 40s all over, but more like V-103 than Q100 or anything. So there ya go, my take and review of Velvet Room. If it sounds like your type of place, go check it out, if not, stick to what you think you'll like, but don't say I didn't tell you what to look forward to ;) UPDATE!!!!: Compound and Velvet Room are switching their Saturday night venues, now Saturdays at Velvet will be House, Electro, Top 40, Mix Style and Compound will be hosting Hot 107s Hip Hop Night. So be on the look out!!!
