I think you have good bones here, nice track, good progression.
Just needs a melodic element on top and you are good to go I think.

A nice track James, with some hooky changes, a very enjoyable listen.

Thanks all. "Just" a melody to add, then! :-) Thanks for listening! Well, a melody, some words and a voice BUT it's a backing worth the effort. You've made installment one. next tantrum you can knock over one of the remaining tasks. And proceed toward completion step by step.
Cheers

Hello James ...
First, I hope your project proves successful and fruitful.
A very nice, relaxing tune with a great foundation. Love the chord progression ... exciting for such a pretty song! You use BIAB quite well!
Wishing you the very best. Take care and please be safe ...

Hello musician17,
Very relaxing soundtrack creating a pleasant atmosphere. A small melodic line would have been well received but it is already very well done like that.

Nicely done  Very calming and easy on the ears, which I liked. Definitely gives off a soundtrack-esque vibe. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks everybody - very kind of you to listen. Yes, it needs polishing (as Ray says, a melody, voice and words) - but yes, my next "tantrum" should hopefully push me towards that! Thanks for the encouraging words - it helps to know that this is worth polishing!
