“First Light” is the debut album from Australian synthesist Jim Ottaway that came out on CD-R back in 2004. Now, this light relaxing ambient release celebrates its 20th anniversary as a factory-pressed CD. For the occasion, some tracks have been re-recorded and remixed from the original MIDI files while a few minor issues have also been corrected. Like all his other releases, its music is drawn from the composer’s love of nature and his spiritual connection to the beautiful environment of the Gold Coast hinterland of Queensland, Australia. The 72-minute soundscape outcome, mainly live improvised and recorded, is a gentle, serene, and enchanting listening affair featuring various lush floating harmonious pads, hints of ambient space music, and new age. It’s all well done and most uplifting, still expressing as much love and emotion as Jim intended initially. Nice one! |
