A masterclass in pristine studio engineering, 'First Light' perfectly encapsulates the breezy, cosmopolitan essence of Japanese AOR. Matsushita's virtuosic guitar work and sophisticated arrangements bridge the gap between smooth jazz-funk and melodic West Coast pop, solidifying its reputation as a city pop essential.
