I agree, follow your own thang. New sounds, especially break through techno is gonna be found by someone willing to take chances. Follow your ears...if your still not satisfied, leave it for another day, maybe another month or year.
I think you should never scrap projects. Instead save the file to disk and store it for later.
Innovate. Experiment. You may turn out to be the next Jeff Mills or Juan Atkins (just to name the bare few. But I'm from the midwest so I gotta give the love to DETROIT!).
YA BIZULNITCH DETRIZOIT...ok i'm done.
