On "Vagrancies" mangled tapes, unidentifiable instruments, electronic wizardry, and wide-ranging found sounds / field recordings join forces to create a kind of audio journal of paranormal phenomena. The various components utilized for "Vagrancies" may seem somewhat familiar to the phonographically inclined, but of course the devil is in the detail, and the ghost is in the machine.

Andrew Anderson's deft attention to the finer points of the audio spectrum ensure that his voice is uniquely potent. His precisely articulated renderings of nature give way to abstracted, blown-out howls of roaming phantoms, their distant calls lingering well beyond the strictly audial. Grounded, recognizable sounds blend, clash, and blend again with unearthly fragments, suggesting the liminal spaces between movements. This album offers a sonic depiction of those barely perceptible footprints left by unseen spectres. They may shuffle about amid restless leaves and wind-chimes before moving on to the next haunting, but the places where those feet tread retain the memories of their presence, forever marked by their vicissitudes and vagrancies.
