Considering that this one is a first for you, I definitely think you did a very good job. I listened to it once and then now a second time to give you a bit of feedback. The track has a very minimalistic beat and progression with a nicely laid out melody-backing and a good lead. I also like the simple but good balance of the pads that play in the background. Very nice.

I would suggest you give the main melodies a bit of delay. This way it fills the track a bit more. Try a 3 or 4 step setting and see how it fits, or just experiment. Delays are a great way to add fullness to a track from very simple instruments and I think this one will benefit greatly. Also, a little bit of reverb on the hats, snare (clap) and melodies to create a sense of space. The kick feels a little overpowering in consideration to the rest of the instruments...give it a small reduction so it balances out a bit.

I also did not hear a bassline on this one which may explain why I sensed the kick to be a bit prominent. Add a basic one to fill in the bottom-end, a good try/test would be to use the same notes (the first few notes) of the synth line that comes in like an arpeggio (7s) and let that section play on the c3 range or so. And possibly hear the results and change a few notes.

It is a little short, but it is expected as it is a first one. My very first track was about the same length as well, and much less complex than this one.

Keep up the great work.
