okay... the idea is very innovative and i like...
However, I still think you need to practice a bit more (please don't take this offensively)
Just some very key and important things to watch out when practicing.
1) TEMPO. Sorry, but your playing wasn't on tempo most of the time... you have to watch how you play... Trust me on this one... I've played violin in small orchestras, guitar in jazz and rock bands, and trombone in various concert bands... If you can't manage to have exactly the same tempo as the percussion, it is very hard to enjoy the music.
2) Melodically, the improv is quite good I find and you definately have some talent and experience. However, while improving, it is still good to have a sense of direction and to have somewhat of a layout. Try before playing, have a main somewhat powerful catchy melody that is repeated and try building up your playing up to that point. It's sounding kinda dry.
3) Chord progression: Try having a more repetitive chord progression than a varried chord progression. Dance music is more about repetition than varying. If the track's has a bassline that follows a chord progression, then play accordingly, if the bassline is just one note, you can still play a chord progression (for ex. if the bass is playing D, play something like D Bm G A) and if there is no bassline, try your own chord progression but make sure it suits the mood of the underlying track. If it is a very hard technoish beat, then an uplifting major chord wouldn't really work. Additionally, you don't have to use the piano patch, but try other synth sounds. Ex. a 303 acid lead improvised would sound awesome.
Anyways, best of luck.. hope that post made sense
