That's fantastic that you are exploring! I've always believed it's "fair game" to use any tool to try to express and relate an emotion musically.

I think a lot of people stop short because they hear someone overuse a device, not to relate but more of a "look at me" kind of thing.

You, I believe, are on the right path!

And I agree, that is a cool solo!
