Don't ask me what an ELECTROSCOPE is, something to do with electricity, I suppose. BUT I also have serious doubts about what "HOMADE ELECTROSCOPE" is. Recorded on an 8-track for the WURLITZER JUKEBOX, I don't know exactly when it was released, sometime in the nineties in Glasgow. A sonic alien object to normally listened-to music, recorded in a very amateur manner but with an excellent sound quality, by two unknown (to me unknown) characters, a certain JOHN CANAGH and a miss GAYLE HARRISSON, owned by the muse of music at the time because after this record, as far as I'm concerned, they disappeared as quickly as they appeared.

The music, look at the cover, a colorful room where strange gadgets whirl about, gives a vague idea of the album's content.

15 brief experimental tracks where sometimes the gentleman talks about something or she with a soft voice hints at a vague melody, all I believe on clarinet notes (here I’m really theorizing!!!!!), some guitar chords, small keyboards, and various sound sources unknown to me. As a whole, it has a great charm, very autumnal.

A great enigmatic album to listen to. To speak of similarities with other groups would be reductive and would make it less charming. The songs do not dominate, but rather the atmosphere that these sounds manage to create with few means, perhaps on an autumn evening where the sounds blend with the surrounding environment's sounds, like, say, in a lovely countryside house on a windy evening.

They define their compositions "THE ELECTRO COLOR SOUND TRACK".

That's all.
