It had very good transitions between polyrhythms! Don't ask why, but for some reason made me think of Cogs in Cogs by Gentle Giant (in a good way!)

Rhythmically it ain't bad, but you must know how muddy your tone is-- you might'z'well be playing a 6-string bass. It's also repetitive: add some interesting changes, otherwise people's ears start to tune-out.

And find a drummer, or a machine, to play with.

Good luck -

Thanks for the incite I was using Hughes and kettner practice amp
and I was using a string gauges 10-46 tuned drop c so that's probably why
it was money hopefully when I get a job I will hopefully be able to get a drum
machine but for now it's all I have but thanks again for the incite and comments

Very nice ideas! You should definitely advertise for some simpatico musicians in your area because that would be great material for a band. Good luck with it!

Of course, playing an instrument is torturous, especially when you don't have everything you need. You've got some raw talent, just keep at it. And at some point partner with another player, you'll improve tenfold.

Thanks for the comment I actually do play in a pop funk and r&b group
where I'm but my heart and soul lies in prog Rock and metal that's also
why I started a YouTube channel so I could have the best of both worlds
thanks again for the comment take care and may God bless
