Radiohead show off a new version of their The King Of Limbs track “Bloom” recorded with famed film composer Hans Zimmer. The reworked cut—called “Ocean (Bloom)”—soundtracks a brief “prequel” video to the BBC’s upcoming natural history series, Blue Planet II, the sequel to 2001's The Blue Planet.

“'Bloom' was inspired by the original Blue Planet series,” Radiohead singer Thom Yorke says in a press release. “So it's great to be able to come full circle with the song and reimagine it for this incredible landmark's sequel.”
