Happy Cycling discovery

I had it on loud on my earphones and was just getting into it when all of a sudden I heard something I had never noticed before!!
When the seagull sample comes in, there is what sounds a bit like an african man singing in the background real quiet! Something like "bahh beh bap bap" a bit like when that voice goes "baap tick"!
Anyone else noticed this? I think I'd never heard it before because your attention gets so distracted by the goddamn seagull!

This sample is panned dead center, so it should be possible to partially isolate it using a center pan extractor (anyone have Adobe Audition?). I'll take a stab at it when I can nab my gal's laptop...can't think of any cheap Mac software that would do the trick.

Yup.
Somebody said to me it was a slap bass synchronized with the seagull, so that's what I've always thought.

Any time you hear the seagull sound, crank it up and you'll hear it.
