whoa somehow missed this: the opening track from the music box village set is a geo solo track that he played on the o'brien system last year, pretty cool

Whoa, nice catch!

Would anyone else like to see an Ummagumma-style AC album? Double LP with each guy writing a side? I mean with them all playing on each other’s sides though. Not like 4 solo eps, like the real ummagumma

obrien system is on right now. based on the description, doesn't sound like it will specifically contain any old AC content

Gang Gang Dance is doing an AMA at r/indieheads and someone asked about AC remixes/collab and they mention a collaborative show with Avey and Deakin called "Tab Tab Tooth"

Question: Any plans to collab/remix with Animal Collective again?

BDG: hey.... i hope we will collab with AC at some point again soon yeah! they are our family and some of our absolute favorite artists and individuals. we actually have some live recordings from the early 2000's of us playing some collaborative shows with Avey and Deakin as "Tab Tab Tooth" . we often talk about unearthing those and releasing them. maybe that will happen someday.

Wait Brian was with Dave and Noah on the sung tongs tour?

Post **Posted:** Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:14 pm

I believe he sold merch on one of the tours.

O’Brien System episode is archived now. Pretty sure it’s the first one without any AC related content

Tangerine Reef apparently out August 17

Post **Posted:** Fri Jul 06, 2018 5:59 pm

^not officially confirmed yet or anything but yeah looks like it's probably the release date!
For anyone who doesn't wanna go on Reddit, it's this, some French website must've accidentally posted a preorder page early and it says Aug 17 https://musique.fnac.com/a12584715/Anim ... FnacDeezer
It looks like a vinyl preorder. I hope there's a DVD or website for the visuals. But either way I'm fucking hyyyyppeee

Post **Posted:** Fri Jul 06, 2018 6:01 pm

someone posted this australian link with the same date. also this one says deluxe edition so i'm guessing there will be a dvd version or something

All your albums feel very visual, as well as audial like it's a complete package and I have read that you've described yourself as someone who has synesthesia...

Animal Collective: That's not true. I've talked about it a lot in interviews and it definitely is a phenomenon that interests me, but I've never viewed myself as having it. I don't know where that rumor came from and is definitely a thing that gets spoken about out there.

Oh shit

The rumor getting circulated comes from everyone reading his wikipedia page probably. Here's the original source from the wikipedia article:

Wait. That’s awesome. You have synesthesia!

Yeah! Totally! When I found out about that (synesthesia, or whatever) just thinking about Nabokov, or someone like that, having it—that phenomenon really fascinates me.

Actually, reading that in context makes it seem like he was saying yeah to something else and not about himself. So shame on whoever added that to wikipedia. BUT THEN:

wrote:

I see color when I hear music and I don't eat drugs to do that. If that is synesthetic or whatever that would be called then I guess.

That's literally the definition of synesthesia, mr tare! Well, let's not press the issue too much. It's clear he's hesitant to accept labels. And probably the last thing he wants is over-speculation about the minutiae of his body by strangers.

Post **Posted:** Sat Jul 21, 2018 3:26 pm

Yeah it sounds like it's come up a lot in interviews, maybe he just doesn't want to be shoehorned as the guy with the synesthesia, like that's his defining characteristic. Sounds like the inescapable "you have to do drugs to make weird music" label also has something to do with it

I think the other thing with synesthesia is like, if you describe it it sounds almost like hallucinating or something, but I think it can be much more subtle. It can be just feeling a strong association between sounds, colors, textures, moods etc. I think many musicians and artists experience that to one degree or another but don't call it synesthesia because it's not like you're literally *seeing* colors, ya know

an unheard avey tare song is being played on the o'brien system today. sounds like it's from tangerine reef sessions, but not sure exactly?

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 25, 2018 5:58 am

Did anyone hear it?

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 25, 2018 6:30 am

I wish it were a podcast. I'm not listening to Internet radio even if I live to a hundred

Post **Posted:** Wed Jul 25, 2018 6:04 pm

it's not on podcast apps but once it's archived, just listening to the recording isn't too different from a podcast
