Very nice...I'd say the style would be closer to Rachmaninoff with all the chords and the flashy bits, but overall it's of excellent quality. Keep up the good work!!

One annoying thing was the rhythm didn't match during the descent.  It felt missing.  I guess if it were performed by a human, he might shape it so that it does feel so chunky.

I agree with the first part, it does degrade the overall impression of it being a completed work. Maybe firefinch could fix it?

As for the latter bit, I must say, although it may be just an inaccurate description, but I do believe it says "composed and performed by R.Goldfinch"? Perhaps it's just that firefinch played it and recorded it on a digital keyboard with a digital software that makes it sound computer-generated?
