I think it's too plain, it needs more oomph. I like that you made the waveform circular. Can you push it more? Rather than a solid thin line on a relatively flat background, can you create more visual interest, and somehow connect it to a deeper idea?

For example, from the pinboard:

This one makes the wave forms look as though they are composed of particles, there's a lot of motion and life to them

This artist extruded and 3-D printed wave forms from songs in a circle not unlike yours. Can you maybe extrude the wave in Blender?

This one converted the sound wave to a bar chart and gave the bar an illustrative style. Can you try a treatment that is atypical for a sound wave (like this kind of illustrative style) and come up with a compelling visual?

This one has the waves layered in different gradients - can you play with layering?

Hope this helps,
