People have no idea how much of their favorite music is built on the same handful of chord progressions. And it's fine because the real magic is in the notes you lay on it, the sound design, the way the different instruments work together.
Taking existing components and building something new by combining them? What on earth is wrong with that? That's great software engineering if it's possible to do for what you need.
