Sample ID What is that sound in Sleepless by Arteq?

There is this weird distinct sound of what seems to be a foghorn or something in Sleepless. For some reason i really want to know what sound exactly is that.

Is it a foghorn/just any horn in general as i think or what is it? And if it is a sample, may i know the song where it got sampled from?

might be a bassoon even though a bassoon is a weird fuckin choice for a jungle/dnb song

Not really, back in the late 90s there was this whole Jazz Jungle scene with lots of live instruments. People who ten years earlier would have been into Acid Jazz or Jazz Funk

There's even a film about the Jazz Jungle scene from 1999
