Accidents count as a production technique too, although it can sometimes be a hard one to master |

Yes, and then you drop it on a Backup Harddisk, and a year later you are stumble over it and ask yourself „ how did i make this awesome Thing ? „

in the moment it accrues and a short time after its mostly almost impossible to realize whether it will musical valuable for me. |
