lol I swear, I have heard it in loads of tracks.

I found it here, but speeded up:
Soundcloud

Bonus point for anyone that can find the original sample.

that song prompts me to think that it might be a garageband loop

Can anyone confirm that it's a GarageBand loop?

Are the strings in that track garageband loops aswell? because I have heard them in other tracks on SoundCloud.

Yes. It's "Asian Gamelan 01". Here's a sweet track I made using it: Soundcloud

Also, in that second track, the string loop is "Orchestra Strings 08" and I'm pretty sure all the rest of the sounds are various other Garageband loops.

Thanks for the ID's.

The drum beat in your track fits very nicely with the loop, not sure on the bassline, I think it would be better suited with a sub bassline imo.

I just grabbed a couple random loops and threw them in there. I don't think it took as much time to make as it did to listen to it.

Here's version two:

I'm pretty sure it's older than garageband. It's probably a really old stock sound, like the wilhelm scream, I bet.
Bonus bonus points for anyone who can figure out which computer game I'm talking about.... I'm trying to remember now lol
I had some 90s Jumpstart games......found them! I will dig deep for this sample!

It's timestretched in the tune in the original post.
Found it! Reader Rabbit presents Math Journey for Grades 1-3. 1997.

lol I played through a few levels and found out you can unlock all the levels without actually playing through them and found the level with the gamelan and other asian sounds.

Awesome

Thanks for uploading the sample

I wonder, if this sample goes back any futher than 1997...

No problem

Also, I can't help but share this gem I found while playing it. For each section, a character sings a song for you about the math concepts you just learned about. Here is a French beaver named "Measuring Mack" who raps about measuring.

Sounds abit like burial with the amount of vinyl noise.

I think the sample rate and/or bit depth were quite low too, being a 90s cd-rom game.
