Reminded me of KLF's Trancentral track
These tracks may be too short for some but are good for a DJ mashup. I can see this being a good album for live performance DJs to extract samples for the loop machines & etc. Yes and with some overlayered orchestral strings, I tried on some tracks myself, it can sound really great, especially with tracks 1 & 2.
Yes, I think that this is a bit like the theme music in the Classic shoot-em-up computer game ... "Descent". It could well be a saleable item to a games manufacturer.

Compare with original "Descent" theme music at

There is no doubt that the music did increase the popularity of that game, and it still has loyal fans today. No doubt your music could do the same for some other games manufacturer.
Best of Luck
The first track I found rather sombre, but the second track is a different animal. What I wonder is which genre will the other tracks we have not heard.
I am thinking that an album should have a style, and that all tracks should kind of meld, one into the next. It is a shock to be listening to the slow sombre melody of the first track and then suddenly a different tempo and volume.
As to the production, I too feel that there is something missing here. The countermelody (if there is one) seems out of step with the main melody, and particularly with the second track, the synth is lacking somewhat in presence. It is a bit thin and disjointed, and even perhaps annoying. The melody is there, but it all sound a bit harsh for me.
Fantastic stuff. This album has my favourite Fenollosa track of all time "Magic Love".....
