This is some fairly minimal jazz I wrote. Recorded in one take, live on my shitty upright piano. Started playing about a year and a half ago. Been writing music for about that long.

beautiful, thanks for posting this. great work.
i still think it's amazing that you've only played for that long.
This is really great, relaxing
Any other opinions?
I'm not all too familiar with jazz and I've never head anything classified as 'minimal' jazz, but I'll give it a shot.
Your chord progression is nice, but there's really no head. It's essentially just comping, which is fine if that's what you're going for. However, if you really want to focus on the chord progression, I think you should pay more attention to rhythm. The rhythm, with the exception of a few changes in meter here and there, is pretty constant. With the meter changes, it doesn't get tiring, but I think it could be more interesting.
Again, I'm not familiar with the style, but I think you can have it sound more varied and interesting while retaining the same feel.
