This is my first post about anything related to lost or unidentified media so I'll try to explain it as best as I can.
The media I'm talking about here came up after a discussion with a friend and is a specific track playing in the background of the anime "Dash Kappei" in episode 2. The track begins in 18:08 and ends in 18:36. This track is not included in any soundtrack album related or containing tracks from Dash Kappei and it is not a variation of either the Opening/Ending or other existing tracks for the show. The series composer is apparently Hayashi Koba (こば はやし) but after looking through his works I couldn't find any direct links to the anime but rather I came up with short commercials with jingles on them which I'm assuming are his works. The track itself has no lyrics and feels like it belonged somewhere else first and then inserted in the show, which wouldn't be uncommon as, to my knowledge, anime composers tend to do stuff like this. For some more clarification, the series ran from 1981 to 1982 and was produced by Tatsunoko Production which were a well known name by then, but, since this track might have come from a different production/source, I'd say it is likely that its origins may be around 1975 to 1980.
