I'm surprised no one commented. That feeling sucks so I'll at least try to say something.
The first one is potentially interesting, but doesn't really hold the attention. As a home experiment it's fine - you created something original that no one else created and doesn't sound "bad" at all, and that's cool!
Problem is on the 'net everyone compares you to the best. It's going to need more layers and "movement" to keep someone's attention. It's just background, even for ambient electronica.
The second one - space rock? I dunno, sounds sort of old school vintage-ish to me... not my thing at all. Again, it certainly didn't sound "bad", just not interesting to me personally. I'd have thought there are others here who WOULD be able to comment intelligently on something in that style though...
Thanks for commenting. For me, the idea of ambient is not to overdo it with to much. Rather minimalistic than trying to do too much.
I don't know about old school space rock. The term was invented in the late 60's, so by definition it is old school. It is almost as old as the fender guitar, marshall amps and delay pedals itself (e.g. Jimi Hendrix and early Pink Floyd). Maybe the term might have grown a new use I'm not aware of. Anyway, one again it is supposed to be rather on the minimalistic side. E.g. Shine on crazy diamond with only a synth line and a lead guitar intro that last about 10 minutes!
Anyway, thanks for the comments. I am under no false impression that I am a Jimi Hendrix 8)
