oh yeh btw im using headphones to make music. uh everything is clearer |
A 'blue' instrument and a 'yellow' instrument can still combine to provide a 'green' sounding instrument, but what you usually don't want is for this 'green' sound to take over the 'blue' and 'yellow' ones. 
Maybe not the best way of explaining it, but it's usually still OK for two or more instruments to occupy the same frequency space, provided they don't 'fight' together in other ways. If you find they sound well together, then why not?
You could try reducing the particular frequency on one instrument and boosting it (most likely not as much) on the other though, depending on which instrument you want to be dominant.
There aren't any set rules though, so don't be afraid to break them. I mean, the fact that the 'rule' states to give each instrument its own sonic space doesn't exactly mean that you have to bandpass each track.
