"An absolutely magical record, really unique and truly immersive..." - Mary Anne Hobbs
"Sublime pulsing electronics and layered bliss... gorgeous music." - Boomkat

Now available on 2xLP and Digital formats! The inaugural Non Projects release is the debut multi-genre album by Los Angeles resident Ryan York. An album of pure emotion and evocative powers, Asura plays out like a continuous movie for the mind. Complete with neck snapping beats and snaky synth lines, silent yet absorbing ambient washes, acoustic instrumental prowess and compositional laptop mastery, Asura satisfies the inner ear's and heart's desires with a physical thump, while consistenly bringing the listener back for more. Non Projects stands firmly behind Asura and is incredibly proud to bring you what will undoubtedly be one of the best debut albums of the year.
Mastered by Daddy Kev at The Echo Chamber (digital) and Simon Davey at The Exchange (vinyl).
* Vinyl copies include a 16 page booklet of Asura's art.
* All vinyl orders placed directly from Non Projects will receive a free 320k MP3 download of the album.
