Electroscope has been played on NTS shows including Freedom To Spend, with Walk The Plank first played on 18 February 2016.

Electroscope formed spontaneously in 1996 while testing an old Ferrograph reel-to-reel. John and Gayle like what they heard and, finding the word Electroscope in a randomly opened copy of Everyday Electronics from the '70s, the band was born.
