To accompany our interview with Icarus (which you can read over here) Sam Britton and Ollie Bown have been kind enough to kick off our series of mixes in a typically eclectic manner, with a selection of material by them and other artists on their boundary-blurring Not Applicable label. As well as a few Icarus classics, you’ll find tracks from some of the combinations soon to feature on the forthcoming Not Applicable albums mentioned in the interview, from the Bown/Burke duo, the Arthurs/Perkin/Dimitriadis trio, and the Arthurs/Bown/Khroustaliov/Ohlmeier quartet, bringing electronic and acoustic approaches together in innovative and exciting ways.
