Obligations is sound settled as work-in-progress. The set assembles 11 pieces produced over two years of the daily practice and pursuit of music free of the considerations necessary for assembling a consistent album. Most of these tracks evolved during work for The Starting Errors and Spall and were left out of those releases due to style, theme, pace, and timbral fit. Or, as Peter Hammill has put it, these pieces "went self-deterministic”.

Obligations is music that emerged from spontaneous experimentation and play in search of novel sounds and structures, with non-binding tryouts for audio manipulation, processing, and editing. The pieces owe their existence to Leimer’s commitment to daily studio work, exercises designed to yield quality from quantity.

While typically calm and slow, these tracks have been collected in the same spirit as The Faust Tapes or Cheer Accident’s Fringements series in their juxtaposition and self-contained quality, while documenting a candid look at Leimer’s work methods.
