Help me identify this track

It begins with a sample of "hello, how are u?..." from the end of Darking Nikki. The song is the chorus of Rave Un2 the Joyfantastic set to a beat that sounds like the fast part of Batdance. Some very nice Madhouse-like piano fills and Madhouse samples from the Godfather films: "bada bing, you blow their brains out all over your nice ivy league suit"

I know it might just be a DJ remix, but there is also quite a bit of instrumentation (lead line done in synths, piano) that is unique to this song. I have had this for about 10 years on a collection of mp3s, and have never been able to identify it. Anyone else heard this? It's definitely not one of the Rave mixes from NPGMC. More like Rave Madhouse style.

vitriol

That's a track that was all over the p2p networks quite a few years ago under the name of 'Raving Mad'.

I've always deemed it a fake (or maybe some of those white label things) since I could never find ANYTHING that confirmed it could be legit.

the main thing is it any good?

if it's awful either delete it or save it to a drive

if its' good, enjoy it and if it turns out to be Prince even better.

Although it does sounds like various prince samples mixed/edited together.
