Ivory & Frosting
Ivory
Do you ever think about how writing a piece is like mixing a recipe? Each note, like an ingredient, needs its own place and balance, and a little too much can spoil the whole thing.
Frosting
Absolutely, I do. Writing is like a cake batter, every line is a dash of flavor, a pinch of spice. If you over‑season one part, the whole piece turns into a burnt toast—so I keep testing until the balance just sings.
