To use an analogy, years ago I asked a guitarist (very good and quite well known) friend of mine "how do you do that", reply "If it sounds good play it again, if it sounds bad remember not to play it again".
Reminds me of my senior-school days [1970s] when we had a visit from a minor prog-rock musician with an early "Digital" synth/sequencer.

He set-it-up and let-it-run. About 30 seconds into the performance, a rather-unconventional shift-of-key was repeated.

Our elderly, classically-trained music-master, horrified, stood up and announced to us-all "You can't do that! You can't! You can't!"

Said minor prog-rocker smiled at us and said "I just did".
