Yeah, Faithless (
Salva Mea [1995] and
Insomnia [1996]) vs. Sash (
Encore une Fois [1996]). Sash used it a year later than Faithless. Pizzicato placed aside, the melodies are similar in some ways. Along with the pizzi, I think this may have been Faithless' beef. Of course it was a ridiculous argument.
The actual sound is from the Roland
JD800/990, a sound called Pizza Hutt. The later JV-1080 and
MC505 also had similar waveforms, again both from Roland.
Energy52 used it in
Cafe del Mar, as did DJ Quicksilver in
Bellisima and Natural Born Grooves in
Groovebird. Thousands of other cheesy tunes ended up flogging it. All ~1995-1997.
