Absolutely - it's a great way to work (I've been doing this for years). You
can drop in bits of algorithmic composition, use all sorts of tools, change
an underlying audio sample and have all dependent files rebuild, use
parallel processing on SMP boxes and generally scale the project, run "make
clean" and pack the whole thing down to a nice concise archive. Thoroughly
recommended.
