It's cool.
It kind of reminds me of something from a video game, or movie soundtrack music.

I think when the hi-hats kick in at 2:15 it's maybe too abrupt. And maybe they seem to be mixed a bit too high. The song has a flowing, organic, spacey feel. Abruptness is distracting.
The pan flute sound is neat, gives it an oriental feel. Like a Japanese cartoon movie.
I also think it could have a bit more deep bass to the kick drum.

Even as it is it's quite a nice piece. :D
 
Hi tarnationsauce2,

Thanks for your comments. Regarding the hi-hats I will mix them a bit lower.

Regarding the deep bass.... do you mean mixing the bass higher or boosting the kick drum at around 80hz? (....and is it the kick drum that starts at 2:15 or that starts at 3:37?)

I just think the low end in general could be a bit deeper sounding. A subsonic thunderous bass drum sound would sound cool.
The slowed drum loop has a deep bass drum sound.
I'm assuming the other kick drum sounds are programmed hits, maybe tune it a bit lower or use a different sample? Or you can try using EQ.

Now I wouldn't mess with it too much, you have a good sound right now.
 
I just did some changes in the kick drum, I used eq and I mixed the bass a bit louder. I made the hhs at 2:15 crescendo in the first four bars.
 
Sounds good. THere is some distortion in here, quite a bit on my headphones. Nice ambient sounds.
 
Hi DavidK,

Thanks for your comments. Please can you tell me at what time are you listening the distortion?
