Name that sample

Right, this is going to sound a bit weird, but . . .

I went for a curry last night with some friends, and over the speakers they were playing a pretty odd range of music. Just as I was tucking in to my Chicken Tikka Bhuna (it was very nice, thanks) on came a track with a very distinctive and recognisable string part - it was the same as the strings on the Future Shock Worlds Apart mix of Jumbo

(this bit) (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1M9S3706)

and now I have to know where it originally came from. It's driving me spare. I can't even really describe the song I heard, cos a)I was busy eating, and b)all I could hear was "OMG! this sounds like underworld"

anyone got any ideas?

it sounds like it's derived from the end of jumbo, the whoosh string sound, except it's being stopped and started. it sounds a bit like TMO because i think it's the same instrument.

nooooo. I didn't mean the "dudum dum dum" bit that's right in the front of the mix, i meant the "dooooooooo doooo dooo do dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" bit that's going on at the back. I think i clipped out two repeats of it in that little section

Were it just the same strings or was the whole bit sampled?
To me it sounds like a cheap strings synthesizer... Maybe it was just a random coincidence.

exact same tune. seriously. It was this slightly dodgy, but not entirely unpleasant kinda of background music stuff. Had kinda bongo-y percussion going on.
