What would you improve in the bassline? the notes or the tone, or both? And yes, the spacey feel is something to still work on, some more reverb perhaps... also its not mastered yet.
I would be subtle with the white noise fx and stuff, just like add ever so slight build-up's towards where beats kick in / transitions, and let it echo over

bassline, the tone sounds a bit basic, too saw wavey, it's kind of stuck inbetween being electronic and trying to sound like a bass guitar, i would go more in either direction

just imo of course :D

it is sweet indeed, the tune. it does also work as is, but i would lean towards adding other.. or just deeper bass. i guess it's matter of taste, but for me it's just a bit too naive sounding. i guess i miss the mean kontrapunkt ;)
