Trying to remember a Disco song that has come up in popularity in the past few months on TikTok from the 80s (I think)

It's a really catchy song that I have in my head but I can't think of the title for it. It has a recorder or a flute or maybe something from a synthesizer that goes up 3 notes and then back down and then this other part of it. I think it's one of of more popular dance/disco songs but I could be wrong. It sounds like it originally came from a wild west song because it has that sound scheme to it. Any help would be appreciated.

Mm even that I'm not sure about. More likely it's an ARP Odyssey, which had no preset sounds on it

Gimme Gimme Gimme. The tune of tunes. I see what you mean about the melody sounding a little Wild Western

Summer Madness? 3 notes at the :40 mark

Definitely not the right tempo. It's a very quick song, and it doesn't only have 3 notes, it goes up 3 then down three, then up 3 again and then goes back up but from a lower note.

Could it be Bob James - “Sign of the Times”?

It has a similar tempo to Rasputin by Boney M. This has more of a funk tempo to it.
