Strands #437
“Boogie woogie woogie”
Hi Strands fans. Today's puzzle is a fun one that'll have you racking your brains for the dance moves of eras past.
Unfortunately, I didn't figure that out right away, having seen the word "studio" in the grid, and gotten hung up on the idea that it was going to be part of the spangram. Something about recording studio stuff.
Eventually I used a clue, which took away three of the letters I was banking on, and revealed HUSTLE. Although long before my time, I'm aware of The Hustle, so now knew this was about dance moves.
I found WOBBLE below it in the bottom-left corner and LOCOMOTION on the opposite side. MACARENA was in the top left, with FOOTLOOSE in the top right.
All that was left was to spell out the spangram from top to bottom: LINEDANCE.
