It has more than that in common with the mystery track.

Maybe it just sounds obvious to me because I *know* where it's from.

Here's a hint then:

http:dis-dot-dat.net/pianopart.ogg

That's the piano part I wrote while listening to the original piece.
It sounds almost exactly like it. This was then used in my track,
speeded up or heavily low-passed, with new pianos, synths, drums,
etc. You can still hear it at the start quite well and at the end
it's the jingly bell-like sound.
