Theo Croker Unveils “sound(e)scape ft. Theophilus London, Nosaj Thing,” a Journey Through Humanity and Sound

Renowned trumpet player, composer, and producer Theo Croker today announces the release of his latest single, “sound(e)scape ft. Theophilus London, Nosaj Thing“. This captivating new track, from his recently released eighth leader album Dream Manifest (Dom Recs), is now available to stream on YouTube: https://youtu.be/AZsKDC2cvAk.

“sound(e)scape” embodies the essence of Dream Manifest, an album Croker describes as “a meditation on what can coexist.” The track seamlessly weaves acoustic, electric, and digital layers into a deep groove where serenity and tension intertwine. As heard in the song’s opening, “Relax your mind, let your sound escape”, Croker invites listeners into a soundscape designed to transport and uplift.

Croker’s creative process for Dream Manifest, including “sound(e)scape,” was born from a vision of communal artistry and an unwavering trust in intuition. Recorded over a week at The Bunker Studio in Brooklyn, the album prioritizes “humanness — instincts, second guesses, energies and breakthroughs” over digital loops. This approach is evident in the dynamic and organic feel of the new single, reflecting Croker’s dedication to capturing the raw energy of live performance.

A testament to the healing power of music, the album and its tracks like “sound(e)scape” are deeply personal for Croker. His experiences caring for his mother during a challenging time profoundly influenced the “tenderness and intimacy” found throughout the record. As he reflects, “Music has this very powerful healing aspect to it, and always has since the beginning of time.”

With “sound(e)scape,” Theo Croker continues to push boundaries, creating music that defies easy categorization. His collaborations with a vibrant ecosystem of artists, including guest features from Theophilus London and Nosaj Thing on this track, contribute to a sound that is both experimental and deeply rooted in human experience.
