BBC 6 Music presenter Tom Ravenscroft is on tonight's episode of Celebrity Mastermind - and he's picked Warp Records as his specialist subject.
The iconic UK label, formed in 1989, has nurtured a reputation for releasing some of the world's most innovate electronic music, and has put out releases by Aphex Twin, Boards Of Canada, Hudson Mohawke, Kelela, Brian Eno, and Lonelady. This won't be your everyday specialist subject round, that's for sure - no Kings or Queens to be found here.
The episode airs on BBC One at 7pm today (30 December) and will be available on the iPlayer afterwards.
