Good chords
I liked your chord changes, especially when you go to the third chord. I suggest a melody on top of the chords after establishing them a few times.

I would also suggest taking the jagged riffs and dialing back on those until near the end. Maybe start them out very faintly and gradually, very gradually bring them up at the end.

Good bongos, drums and nice telephone(?) ring in the background.

Not Trance
It's cool you're testing what you can do with Garageband. But this isn't really a trance track. Trance derived from Techno and uses a 4/4 time signature. Your track has a 4/2 time signature, which is used for Hip Hop and Rock. Trance is usually also faster, about 130-160 beats per minute.

But I'd say this could be called Ambient or Chill Out. It's great you're exploring the loops, but I'd like to encourage you to go through the synthesizer sound banks and play with the default settings. The number of options and how their sound can be changed is amazing. You can change the actual instrument as well, not only apply filters. It's and an endless source of inspiration.

Enjoyable Colors
At the beginning relaxing yet caffeinated, but then turns far more nervous by the mid-point. I agree with Monkaton that lowering the volume on the jagged riffs would be an interesting mix - I think it could lend the song more balance between the elements and maybe sense of drama/suspense if you were to make them swell slowly for say 4 bars, drop them back again, swell, etc. Just a thought.
