I was supposed to be able to tell that you're an amateur by that? Really, I liked that a lot, and really loved the progression(?) of it all up until around 2:34. Just kind of... well... chill and cool in general.
A few things I noticed were that the pad seems a bit loud at the beginning compared to the stabs to me, or something of that sort. You also may be clipping a bit at some sections, like 0:29 and 0:59, and the shaker or hat that comes in at the 1:00 seems to be panned a little bit too much to the left for me. The piano at 2:33 clips, unless that was a desired trait of your sound, and it seems to have too much stereo separation on it. I might like a bit more bass on the kick drum at 3:00, but I can see what you're doing with that. Maybe pick either more high pass or a low pass, since at the moment it just kind of seems like a weak kick rather than something meant to pick the beat back up again, and it's a bit intruding.
It just needs a few fixes, but I really like what you've got going. And obligatory note that this is just what I'm hearing.
