First off, I really like it! It has a fantastic mood, and I love how the chord progression in the pad synth creates tension with the static arpeggio. The pad synth patch sounds really rich.
There is a bit of noise in the recording, which sounds like tape hiss but is probably an analog connection somewhere in your setup. It fades with the arpeggio at the end, so I think it's probably in that track. See if you can clean up that noise somehow by stopping it at the source, simplifying your rig to avoid analog connections, or with Noise Repellant (https://github.com/lucianodato/noise-repellent).
There is room for more in the bass frequencies. A long sustain bass would work well and could add some interesting texture to your chords. That could add some more emotional impact to the piece. Or if you wanted to change up the texture there is plenty of room for a more active bass and percussion track.
You have something interesting going on in the baritone range as a counterpoint, but it is mostly lost in the muddiness of the mid-lows. There are good ways to clean up the mid-low frequencies, basically by using high-pass filters judiciously, and plenty of online tutorials that explain the technique.
Overall, despite my nitpicks, this is a solid piece of work and I am definitely interested in hearing more from you.
