To get you excited about tipping over board games in Christmas family arguments, here's a little quiz.
In the style of the telly programme Only Connect, I have devised a wall of (mostly) electronic music acts.
Electronic music connects them all. However, these 16 acts can also be split into four groups of four connected acts. What are the four groupings? See if you can work it out.
No, this isn't a fancy wall that you can click on. It's just a jpeg: you'll have to work it out on pen and paper. I've also typed out the names below in case the image isn't loading for you.
Good luck!
The solution is in the comments. No peeking.
The wall: CARIBOU, VENETIAN SNARES, BRIAN ENO, BOARDS OF CANADA, PLAID, BLACK DOG, CELINE DION, DEADMAU5, THE MIKE FLOWERS POPS, THE PRODIGY, THE SABRES OF PARADISE, SWEET EXORCIST, VANGELIS, KNIFE, POSTAL SERVICE, ORB
Further Fats: The Fat Roland electronic music logo quiz (2014)
Further Fats: POP RATS ANAGARMS 1: two flaky pop music anagrams (2020)
Here's the answer. I'm going to scribble some dots to push this further down the page. Here goes:
