I just love the waterhouse style "ohoi stanyoi" and of course Barry Brown with his "kwe kwe kwe" and his other "deep laughing" sound (no idea how to name/spell it).

This is beyond a tic, this should be part of "reggae DJ imitating an animal" thread, in this case I let you decide which one. I would say cow.
