Need help finding "Going Down" by Mr. D (Jamie Holyoake)

Hello all. I'm looking for a bit of a potential deep cut here, but I'm hoping that maybe someone out there might know where I can listen to this song again. This was a song I liked when I was much younger, and I've been trying to find it for a month straight, maybe longer. If this is the wrong way to post this, or I'm not going about this the way that's intended, I apologize in advance.

Premise of song: Going Down is a song that seemingly takes place inside of a luxury department store/hotel, and the listener is descending the building in an elevator (the elevator is not audible withing the song).

What's happening/the lyrics: During the descent, as the listener hits each floor, the female announcer states what floor the lister has reached, as well as what is all available on the floor (i.e. "Fourth floor: fine jewelry, silks, high-end fashion, and expensive perfumes."). The announcer will then say "Going Down", and the cycle repeats on a different floor.

The sound: The sound of the song has been described as being a mix of "smooth jazz, and slow electronic beats", and has been suggested with a genre label of "Sophisti-pop". Apparently Holyoake was known for similar stuff. The song had a mild but slower tempo. I remember there being a lot of what sounded like synth piano being used for the main melody, and it's present for most of the song from what I can remember.

I know this may be a long shot, but I'm holding out hope that I can find a way to hear this song again. I remember liking it a lot. Thank you all for any efforts in advance.
