What is that sound that opens up the Emancipation album?

As in, those clickety click sounds before the bass intro to Jam Of The Year? lol

I always used to think maybe a garage door opening to a underground party but I'm probably wrong. So what exactly is it? mr.green

I always presumed it was meant to be the sound of the Vault door opening - I.e. saying "Now I'm free, here's the shit I've been storing in the vault".

I would imagine the sound actualyl comes from a stock sound effect CD.

Oh, I see. That makes sense. nod

I also always wondered why he sampled the intro to Jam Of The Year just before Movie Star kicks in on Crystal Ball. Actually, I think I've just got it lol
