Another odd one...
I've still been focusing more on rhythm than melody - I should probably try to change that focus for the next track I write.
I basically wanted to see how far I could take a repeating arpeggio while still keeping it engaging.
As always, your feedback is massively appreciated! ^_^

Can't lose with an arp in my view! Love the feel they bring. Very nice bass playing on this.

You did it - engaging throughout! I wanted to keep listening, which says everything. Good work! :-)

Yeah, @phenola hit it on the head; you channel a bit of Tangerine Dream here.
Which is always a good thing.
Nothing wrong with a good rhythm.
Great picture to go with the song, too.
I'm liking that subtle and yet active bass line holding down the bottom end.
Really lovely little figures starting at about 2:15 or so.
Nice.

I like this a lot. The arpeggio ostinato has a Tangerine Dream kind of feel to it. I really like the off-the-wall harmony at 2:13.
You can go quite a long way with a single arpeggio... I did a track a year or two ago where I ran the same arpeggio for the entire piece of music, and it was one of my favourites from that year.
