Our Take

In the pulsating realm of British jazz, Theon Cross is a name that resonates with fervor. His latest offering, "Intra-I," takes listeners on a sonic journey through the vibrant streets of London, where brass instruments reign supreme.

From the moment the album kicks off with the infectious groove of "Activate," it's clear that Cross is not here to play. His mastery of the tuba is on full display, with each note reverberating with power and precision. The fusion of jazz, Afrobeat, and electronica creates a unique sound that is both refreshing and invigorating.

Tracks like "Panda Village" and "Candace of Merthyr" showcase Cross's ability to seamlessly blend traditional jazz elements with modern production techniques. The result is a captivating experience that keeps listeners on their toes from start to finish.

But it's not all high-energy bangers on "Intra-I." The album also features introspective moments, such as the contemplative "The Offerings" and the hauntingly beautiful "CIYA," which showcase Cross's emotional depth and versatility as a musician.

Overall, "Intra-I" is a triumph for Theon Cross, solidifying his status as one of the most exciting and innovative voices in the UK jazz scene. With this album, he has proven once again that he is a force to be reckoned with, and I can't wait to see where his musical journey takes him next.
