judge this lighting

I think the subject's key light could be a tad stronger, overall his face seems a stop underexposed. But I do like the subject's back light especially in conjunction with the splash of light on the background...really separates the subject from the set and that's good.
 
the lights at the front will draw the eyes and the visual elements of the scene do not of themselves lead the eyes back to the cener of the screen where the subject is - this may be distracting depending on how you get in to the shot, and whether or not the CDs have some significance to the story line. If the viewers eyes were already focused on something bright on the right side of the screen it would probably work.

You might flag off the hot spot on his nose

need to light the eyes more. Maybe a little more fill on the face altogether. Otherwise, I like the layers.
 
I think it's just fine.

You'd kill some of the mood, which I enjoy, if you were to do any of the suggestions above. :)

Then again, I don't know what you were going for.
