“La Procesión” aims to portray a ritual funerary procession. While the music holds to the pace of such longing, the colorful video questions space, time, and corporeality, by bringing offerings to the afterlife, namely textiles, flowers, and jewelry, that fall slowly into the mirror, which is the door to the liminal space in-between life and death.

La Procesión is the first single from Ale Hops’s fourth full-length album ‘The Life of Insects’, out on October 23rd, on Buh Records.
The album can be ordered here.

The production of the album and the video was supported by Initiative Musik gGmbH with project funds from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media.
