Throwing Snow feat. Adda Kaleh - The Tempest

Music Video

Wiki

Synopsis

Two dancers drift through a dark, infinite space as if they were celestial bodies suspended in a dream. Their movements are multiplied, mirrored, and folded into kaleidoscopic patterns, creating constantly shifting constellations of human forms. Costumed like figures from classical mythology, they appear and disappear within clouds, geometric shapes, and swirling visual echoes. The abstract imagery follows the track's brooding electronic pulse and Adda Kaleh's solemn vocals, turning dance into a hypnotic vision of motion, scale, and transformation.
