Very effective at that reflective style you were going for, very nice! I think what the track needs it maybe another instrument taking the melody at some point to break the piece up into identifiable parts. The melody here is great, but as of now everything in the piece sort of blends together. I think just adding a different instrument for one of the sections or possibly adding some chill drums towards the middle would go a long way here. The tempo slowing down at the end was a nice touch, I was a fan. It further adds to the feeling of quiet that these type of tracks excel in. Well done!

Thanks for the feedback, it’s really helpful!
To be completely honest, when I recorded those two instruments I didn’t feel the need to add more. It’s true that the track becomes a bit homogeneous, but I can see myself just looping this song and zoning out.
Also, I didn’t really know what else to add hehe. I feel like a percussive instrument is the only thing that’s missing, but I think it might have been too disruptive. Maybe some chords could have helped.
Either way, I’m still learning to compose music. This small project is a stepping stone, and I hope to gain more experience and skills in these types of jams. Thanks again for the comment! :D
