Soooo. I'm not sure if this is exactly the right category, as I don't know if this media counts as found. Though also, I'm not sure if it counts as lost. One of those weird grey areas.
Anyways, on with the story you're all here for. When I was a kid, I played a game called Dizzywood. Lovely little site, taken from us too soon. As in, taken from us around January 2011.
Dizzywood wasn't a perfect game. I know that. But it was great for a 10-year-old girl who had nothing better to do. It had a fair amount of worldbuilding, lovely character/furniture designs, and a large playerbase often split into a hundred different subcultures. Also, it used a lot of royalty-free music, or at least music you could use if you paid for it. Not sure which, though I distinctly recall hearing a song in a Dizzywood minigame then again in a National Geographic (or other similar channel) show about space or something.
Which is why I think this song might exist.
In-game, it was called "Pyramid Party." No artist credited. There're a couple songs out there called Pyramid Party, but I don't think those are the ones I'm looking for: they have different listed genres, and one has an "explicit version." The song I remember is instrumental. I've been looking on and off for years, and eventually decided hey, why not post here?
All I have are two little clips. Both of them are also very slightly altered, because I was a kid and liked adding reverb to everything and also speeding stuff up (that's why the dates say March 2011: I edited them).
Here're the clips:

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a dead end, in which case we can move it to "lost," but the fact is that about 20 seconds of this charming little tune are alive (though maybe just on my DSi.)
In the near future, I'm probably going to do a deep dive through all the Dizzywood videos on YouTube and see if any actually have audio recordings of the music. But hey, I thought I'd share this here, because maybe it's a royalty-free song that exists in some archive somewhere.
