Nicole Laurel-Asensio tells her Poblacion story in new single

General Luna lead vocalist Nicole Laurel-Asensio teases a new single about the life in one of the Metro's entertainment districts Poblacion, to be released on Spotify on October 16 and a music video on October 17.

In her story, Nicole narrates the colorful night life when all the flickering neon lights illuminate the fun and vibrant story of each person who wander in the streets of Poblacion. Who would forget the loud sounds, lingering smoke and intoxicating drinks that help us escape from the monotonous and tiring days of hard labor? Nicole Laurel-Asensio writes her story of meeting people, enjoy a time of happiness or even unfortunate events. That what makes Poblacion an interesting spot and Montmartre of Makati.

Poblacion combines jazz, big-band music and maybe hard rock, thanks to the collaboration with Chito Miranda and AMP Big-band which Nicole had drawn inspiration to. Coming also this week is a 1920s or so themed music video with no other than legendary Ms Cherie Gil. Watch the making of the song and music video below:

Based on the book series of the same name by Nancy Springer, Enola Holmes is the teenage sister of Sherlock Holmes. Raised unlike the other girls in the 1884 England, she doesn't embroider, rather she fights with her hands and outwits the gentlemen, especially her brothers Sherlock (Henry Cavill) and Mycroft (Sam Claflin), to search for their lost mother (Helena Bonham-Carter) who left no apparent clue in her disappearance.

SM Supermalls adapting to bike-friendly parking during the quarantine period

Hope you're enjoying the long weekend and getting a healthier lifestyle for your body and the environment through biking. And for many of us who reverted to bicycles as a new mode of transportation, SM Supermalls has created bike parking facilities across its malls.

With organized and secure parking zones designated solely for bicycles, SM hopes to make the riding experience safe and convenient for the growing number of bike commuters, especially in communities where SM malls are located. And the good news is that these spaces are currently FREE OF CHARGE.

For customers who prefer to protect their bikes from the elements, there are covered bike parking areas in SM Aura Premier, The Podium, S Maison, and SM Marikina.

For customers who enjoy the convenience of street-level parking, Mall of Asia, SM By the BAY, SM Megamall, SM BF Paranaque, and SM Olongapo Central are among the malls that offer bike parking areas near the mall’s entrance.

Customers have one less thing to worry about when it comes to bike parking safety with on-duty guards manning and securing bike parking areas at all SM malls. Other security measures such as at SM City North Edsa require customers to register in a logbook and submit ID in exchange for a bike parking pass as an added layer of security.

With SM’s bike-friendly facilities, customers can look forward to a safe, convenient, and enjoyable biking experience. Importantly, SM aims to support inclusive mobility especially during the quarantine period, and hopes to encourage more people to take up biking as a healthy and
environment-friendly alternative means of transportation beyond the pandemic, which is part of SM’s Green Movement campaign promoting clean, green, sustainable communities.
