A soundtrack to a film by the same nameāand originally performed live during a screening at 2017ās Borscht Film Festival in MiamiāTangerine Reef sets Animal Collectiveās free-spirited pop to video art duo Coral Morphologicās intimate, similarly psychedelic visuals of life on the ocean floor. On its own, itās a languid, wonderfully atmospheric swim through groves of modular synths and strange effects, with contributions from everyone in the band but Noah āPanda Bearā Lennox. Fittingly, theyāve dedicated it to the International Year of the Reef effort. āItās pretty clear that coral reefs are in trouble,ā Brian āGeologistā Weitzāan avid scuba diverātold Rolling Stone. āWeāre hoping that Animal Collective fans and beyond will see this footage and be inspired to care about the ocean and care about coral reefs and do what they can.ā
