Sweet, Sweet Sounds

IT'S deep, rich and mellow, and the CHOCOLATE LOUNGE is now open for business at the MERCURY HOTEL. Originally intended for the Zoom Bar, as CHUNKY FUNK BISCUIT, Chocolate Lounge vibe master DJ JONATHAN has decided on a new venue for his funk and soul night.

JONATHAN says the atmosphere of CHOCOLATE LOUNGE at the Mercury Hotel will be similar to the vibe of the ROKWOOD BAR he helped establish at the Exchange Hotel.

The DJ will play old vinyl records by SLY & THE FAMILY STONE, JAMES BROWN and the like.

'It'll be everything you're hearing now in the Top 40, but it will be the original, definitive version,' he said. TE
