Album Description:

‘N/A An Introduction To Not Applicable’ brings together almost and hour of film and nearly three hours of music realised and documented spontaneously since the inception of Not Applicable as an undefined method of realising work in 2002 by Ollie Bown and Sam Britton of the electronic group Icarus.

The work presented unites a core set of like minded individuals who currently define Not Applicable; Britt Hatzius, Isambard Khroustaliov, Lothar Ohlmeier, Martin Hampton, Maurizio Ravalico, Ollie Bown and Tom Arthurs with guests and collaborators; Adem Ilhan, Alice Scott, Candas Sisman, Daniel Clift, Geoff Wass, Javier Carmona, Laurent Duriaud, Oren Marshall, Tolga Tuzun and Yannig Willmann.

In spirit, the compilation tries to do exactly what the title implies; to assemble an anthology of work that is definitive without being prescriptive; to present a precise survey of moments in time and fleeting collaborations that, by definition, are often ephemeral in nature and without any specific agenda. As such, ‘N/A An Introduction To Not Applicable’ is perhaps best seen as a moment of pause and necessary reflection; a chance to soak up what has been created so far and read what it intuits.
