SUPER✰NOVA & LGC RETREAT
"finally, most of the debuted artists will that part in a RETREAT in december. unfortunately, due to their schedule, NOVA will be unable to attend. instead, their participation will be done through preparing a meal for the company's artists and staff members. considering the group only has 6 members, they are far from enough to be able to prepare LUNCH BOXES for everybody in a timely manner. so it's been decided that the five of you and some LGC SPRING BOYS members will be assisting the girls in their task, on DECEMBER 6." hyuncheol announces. "the activity will be used as content for NOVA's upcoming YOUTUBE SHOW. i expect all of you to be on your best behavior and do your best on this day."
as explained above, the girls will be assisting the NOVA members in making LUNCH BOXES for their seniors. do not worry, staff of the partnered cafe will also be present to supervise and assist the idols and trainees.
the participants will be divided in three teams, each in charge of different parts of the boxes:
SANDWICH & KIMBAP TEAM: seo minseo, yu milan, baek byeongkwan, kwon hyuntae, noh areum, yang aera
GRILLING TEAM: kim nayoung, watanabe miyu, kurosawa akio, xue yichen, park jaekyung, park taeha

A-T-3 204 SunPalace - Rude Movements
We're rolling! Enduring British jazz-funk instrumental which is essentially two musicians improvising over a Roland CR78
Keyboard-player and producer Keith O'Connell and Burnley DJ turned studiogeek Mike Collins (Sun Palace) were unofficial members of Light Of The World. It's a shame I can't find more about Keith O'Connell, in the 1970s and 80s Collins and O'Connell seemed to have been thick as thieves playing and producing together. Mike Collins is different, before his death in 2018 he had had an online footprint, Collins had become a writer of music production books so, as a writer, to see he was blogging isn't that surprising. I love Rude Movements and I'd periodically search online for information about it, in 2011 Mike Collins wrote a blog post about it. He described the recording the track and sprinkled this with little tidbits like SunPalace had originally been called Rude Note and renamed by britfunk label Passion - I'm a record obsessive I lap this shit up. Before this blog post appeared I saw SunPalace as a faceless studio group, now they have names and are a little less obscure. I've just read a line saying Rude Movements came from outer space - it didn't, like all art it came from hard work and dedication, this gets missed from art and contributes to the work put into making the stuff being undervalued
Rude Movements is popular with a whole variety of DJs, and it's a 'what's this?' kinda track, so when it is included on the Nuphonic compilation David Mancuso Presents The Loft in 1999 it was a record I had been looking for. In Mike Collins blog post he lists appearances and remixes, Collins misses a few, Rude Movements is the basis for Groove Committee track Just Play The Music on NuGroove highlighting its proto-houseness. If anyone knows the vocal sample used on Just Play The Music Gert in touch, it's been driving me made for almost two decades
Kenny Dope included Rude Movements on Stop And Listen Volume 5 that he compiled for BBE. Sixteen years later in 2016 BBE put out a compilation of unreleased SunPalace/Mike Collins material. This is followed by The Lost Tapes EP on Chuwanaga, released just before Mike Collins' death. RIP
Fortunately for us Mike Collins did a few interviews promoting these recent releases. Here's an excellent interview in Music Is My Sanctuary https://www.musicismysanctuary.com/back-raw-lost-tapes-legendary-sunpalace-project
and another for Vinyl Factory https://www.musicismysanctuary.com/back-raw-lost-tapes-legendary-sunpalace-project

Arise II (A Spotify Playlist). [To listen click HERE]
It’s the Lunar New Year, and the energy of Aquarius permeates the atmosphere as the current stellium of the sun, moon, Mercury, Venus, Uranus, and Jupiter is so close to the sign.
The February 2021 new moon is the climax of this planetary gathering. It is time to set intentions and ascend to living life in the 5th dimension.
The 3rd dimension which has so occupied humanity, being aware of a physical manifestation with little connection to essence, is on its way out. The 4th dimension of thoughts and feelings opens the doors of the heart; a clear thought accompanied by a strong feeling, like joy, will take us to the 5th dimension where we understand Source and the interconnectedness of all.
Here are 100 minutes of music by Candido, Resonance, Voyage, The Gibson Brothers, Pam Todd and the Love Exchange, Sun Palace, Melba Moore, Taana Gardner, Empress, Melvin Van Peebles, Crown Heights Affair, and Azymuth, to aid us at that 4D moment of thoughts and emotions into the 5D realm of community and gratitude.
Walking past the apocalypse of 3D dominance I am…here wearing a Scooter LaForge City Poncho, Levi’s jeans, and A.P.C. sandals.
