Stereolab's "Pop Quiz" comes from Music for the Amorphous Body Study Center, the 1995 EP the band made in league with the New York sculptor Charles Long. This was gallery music in the most literal sense: each song went into Long's exhibit as a companion to one of his sculptures, and at first the only place to get the record was the exhibit itself, in a pressing of 1500. A limited run later reached the shops, and that one is out of print now.
Tim Gane and Lætitia Sadier composed it, and Stereolab produced it with Paul Tipler. Anyone who missed both pressings can find it, along with the rest of the EP, on the compilation Aluminum Tunes: Switched On, Vol. 3.
