When I heard “Maple” that one piano part immediately reminded me of “Still Dre.”

Interesting. I can see why. It’s not based on that either. And that would mean that any song that features repeated piano arpeggios, major or minor, would be compared to Dre’s. which part of Grant Green’s do you think it leans heavy on?
My comparison of your work to Grant Green’s “Maybe Tomorrow” was not a definitive crate-dug answer it was a pop-culture knee-jerk reaction that comes from the way pop saturates the brain. I would not compare every song with piano arpeggios to Dre’s song but that’s what came to mind when I first heard “Sugar Maple.” This is not to say your work is derivative but the piano is nice touch to the song overall. So where does it come from?
hm – I produced Maple, just wondering which part of Grant Green’s you think it leans heavy on
