Secular Fusionism by Roboquarians

These are some repurposed songs that Ayumi and Kevin salvaged after the demise of the Secular Fusionists. What a departure from the original tracks! Kevin is in his usual berserker mode of drumming and Ayumi brings her usual one of a kind use of effects on her saxophone. The attempted result is a "Song X" vibe (Orrnette Coleman's 80's masterpiece). Kevin and myself have been obsessed with that album for years. This is a bit of a departure for the Roboquarians-not the usual total free improvisation. This is also all recorded remotely and not live in the studio. Kevin did record all his tracks with John Epperly at Metropolitan Sound in Brooklyn, but George and Ayumi recorded in the comfort of their own home studio. The preferred Chunky Homestyle method.

Kevin Shea and George Draguns first started playing together way back in the 1990s in Storm and Stress. They have maintained a friendship and musical relationship to the present day. Through mr. Shea, Ayumi was folded into the duo's baby man aesthetic and have been playing together since 2021(?). This trio has released Volumes 1 and 2 on the 577 label out of Brooklyn.
