Can you check the bass in this

This is not a usual kind of piece maybe, for checking bass levels - its an ambient electronic piece, but it does have some rhythmic sections with bass levels that I am not sure about.   Could you have a listen and let me know how it sounds bass-wise at the sections starting 1:38 and 3:16.    
 
Thanks - and any other comments welcome!

    This is a lovely piece of work, really enjoyed it. Love that ''thrrrrapp' percussion hit that heralds the changes. If you hadn't mentioned the bass I wouldn't have thought anything amiss, but it could come up a hair at 1:38. Later it sounds fine to me.
     
    Beautifully detailed arrangement and mix, the sort of thing I strive for. That high synth at the end over the piano - superb.

    This is very cool, thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end.  Nice clean open airy mix with a good balance.
     
    Listening on my Event 20/20 passives (8" woofers) the Bass is right on the nail, actually a sub would have been sweet just to round off/extend the low end.
     
    For me the mix is spot on.  Thank you for sharing

    Thanks - really appreciate the listens and feedback.  I did have the bass a bit higher, brought it down, then thought maybe I had taken it down too much.
