Async Figure is the new project from UK based MM & Suda, the culmination of a long history of collaboration, beginning with Her Records in 2012. Async Figure furthers the approach of Her Records in prioritizing the thrill of the unfathomable and the irrational. Central to the music is the idea that the sensory disruption that can take place through contact with new and unexpected sounds on the dancefloor can destabilize everyday modes of perception and open up transgressive potentials. High emotion melodies will fold into chaotic yet physically coherent polyrhythms, melting sudden senses of system shock into rehabilitation and warmth. Async Figure was debuted with a live set at Unsound Festival in October of 2018, which was described as a 'deeply disorientating' experience, 'littered with fragments of UK club culture', but with 'no readily available point of reference'.
