High frequencie in Björk-Jóga, Maybe a dumb question... Options

[Grunpfnul]

I buyed these days Björk- Greatest hits (the one with the strange cover on it) and i love the disc.
Every single song one masterpiece of its own, if you can like the sound of Björk.

But there is some strange thing, that keeps me busy: In the song "Jóga", at a later stage of the song, i think i hear some strange high frequencie in the background.
On CD and on FLAC copy.

Just for the healthy of my mind: Do anyone hear the same as is? Audacity shows me a strange peak at 20390 Hz, who i think that it could be.

Pick one:

• Synthesizer.
• Heavily distorted, flanged, and reverbed guitar.
• Heavily distorted, flanged, and reverbed violin.

I wouldn't be surprised, either, to find an electronic musician like Björk intentionally using comparable or identical filtering artifacts, as they are found in low bit rate compression, as a supplement effect for portions of her mixes.

nope, just bjork.

You can probably rule out a guitar just given Bjork's anti guitar bias.
The album that song came from (Homogenic) is primarily a string octet with much of the electronic sounds being processed/distorted Icelandic nature sounds --- geysers, eruptions etc...

Synthesizer

Some older analog synths produce a pretty obscene amount of HF noise, so this is quite likely. I've found this is especially true of many older modular synths which Björk probably uses.
