Aurora is an extended play by British rock supergroup Asia, released on 2 April 1986 exclusively in Japan by Geffen Records.
It consists of four songs: "Too Late" from Astra (1985) and three B-sides from different singles. "Ride Easy" was originally available only as a B-side, on "Heat of the Moment" singles, released outside of the United Kingdom, and never appeared on a studio album. In an interview, released on the DVD (2007), vocalist and bassist John Wetton said that "Ride Easy" was one of his favorite Asia songs. "Daylight" was initially available as a B-side on "Don't Cry" singles and was featured as a bonus track on original Alpha (1983) cassette editions. "Lying to Yourself" was originally available only as a B-side, on "The Smile Has Left Your Eyes" singles, and never appeared on a studio album. All three B-sides were released on the compilation (2000).
