Noise on Xpand download

Does anybody else have this digital noise in the beginning seconds of Xpand? I think it's also on Xosphere but less audible... apparently it's constantly on, throughout the track. It's like vinyl noise and increases and decreases like a wave.

I don't think it's just the organ's effect - it's all over. Now I'm wondering if it's some buzz from electricity or if it's on the download track for all of you?

Oh, hold on... right now I noticed for Xosphere it's only to be heard during the first few seconds - which is when Xpand crossfades to Xosphere. So I guess it's an intended vinyl effect noise.

Yes -- the effect is intentional and was also present in the original downloads of Xpectation that were offered to club members on Jan. 1, 2003 at 12:01 a.m.
