help to identify an instrument
Hello everybody, i'm trying to write this theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n17_-KhCH7U
At the beginning you can hear a percussion instrument, it repeats the same jingle all over the track length. I have failed to identify this instrument, so i'm asking here for help :)

Could be a marimba - but I'm not absolutely certain as it sinks into the background of the mix too quickly.
I am guessing harmonic percussion, synthesized and further tweaked from Hammond original, to exaggerated effect over minimal “note proper” (then phaser/flanger on top). See quick demonstration here, longer here. Scout soundbanks for ‘percussive organ’.
Not natural (synthesized) marimba sound.
