Reflections on AbStRaCt Sound

My peer's comments were overwhelmingly positive and also very uniform. Everyone said that the smooth flow and the haunting echoing sounds were strong and interesting. They said the variation and the transitions were seamlessly put into the piece. To be honest, no clear suggestions were made, but by the mutual thoughts and emotions that everyone gave me, I will be able to determine "opposites" very easily. 

Smooth => FRACTURED
Flowing => CHOPPY
Seamless Simultaneity => ABRUPTNESS
Tone-based => RHYTHM-BASED (?) 

Some of my peers has a very interesting sense of voice in their piece. But since my piece was the only tone-based work, it's difficult for me to adopt ideas from their own... We are on opposite ends of the spectrum, but I'm wondering if breaking my piece can also involve crossing that spectrum.
