One of the most intriguing figures of the new regional alt-pop scene, Macha Ravel, shared a musical surprise with the audience for Halloween – a new song and video clip ‘Pasegoni’. This is a mystical release that comes in the middle of the current ‘Lutkica’ tour, as part of which she will hold her biggest solo concert so far – on December 12th at Zagreb's Boogaloo club.
“‘Pasegoni’ was created two years ago and I had no plans to release it. I played the first demo to my producer Endža, who convinced me that we absolutely had to finish it. We started from scratch, and the process was very similar to the creation of Lutkica – the song simply came out of us. We further perfected the song in collaboration with Belgrade producer A.N.D.R., who gave it his personal touch, and we ended up with something completely unique,” explains Macha Ravel.
The new song comes with a visually mysterious video that combines introspection, emotion and symbolism in Macha's recognizable style. Her desire was to find the perfect balance between mysticism and strength, and to convey emotion as tangibly as possible, and from this perspective she explains the symbolism of the snakes that appear in the video:

“I didn't want to show the relationship of dominance of one force (the snake) over me, but an agreement between me and it – like a dance, as if she and I were one. I wanted to show what a snake would look like if it were me, and what I would look like if I were a snake. I am grateful to Goran for immediately understanding my vision and managing to create a world around my feelings”.
The video for “Pasegoni” was shot during a break between concerts of the current club tour “Lutkica”, with a creative team from Belgrade, led by director Goran Popovski, with the conceptual and directorial signature of Macha Ravel and producer Endža Dolores.
The song is available on all digital platforms, published by Menart.
The "Lutkica" tour until the end of the year will go this way: Rijeka 14.11., Novi Sad 4.12., Zagreb 12.12., Mostar 19.12. and Sarajevo 20.12. and you should make an effort to meet her somewhere and say hello by coming to the concert.
