Back in about 95 I had a copy of a tape from a mate of mine. The tune in question was probably the first on either side A or side B. It started off with a single note and went in the form:
daa da da daa da da daa da da daa
No beat, nothing else. It repeated and got faster and faster for about a minute and there was a brief stop and then everything kicked in. Heavy fast beat with the riff continuing in the background. I can hear the tune in my head. It's one of the few I have never been able to track down. Probably from the very early 90s. Could be from Helter Skelter, Fantazia, or Dreamscape tape packs. I just don't know. That whole riff started slow, and repeated and sped up. The mate who gave me the tape, I was chatting to and I happened to ask him if he remembered. He said he recognised it but needed to have a think but sadly the next day he had a serious seizure and died. So, I have been stuck with this tune in my head as an earworm for many years and the only person I know that knew it is dead. Can any of you guys help?

Random guess but it sounds a bit like D-Tox - The Trancer : https://www.discogs.com/release/167469-D-Tox-The-Trancer-EP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBHx-CcdO-w

Holy Jeezus!
First time! Bang on the buzzer. That is exactly the track! You would not believe how big a smile I have right now listening to this belter of a tune.
You absolute legend :)
That has seriously made my week. I would never have found that.

Think that track is on The DJ Clarkee mix from Dreamscape 20, maybe the tape pack that you heard it on?!
He also played a great Blu Peter track sped up called magic, was one of my fav mixes from around that time!
