My Question or Issue

I hear a mysterious "clacking"  on numerous quiet songs, on multiple platform equipment, multiple songs, multiple artists.  See:  Angus MacRae "Mirror Image".  Is this piano noise on the original recording such as pedal noise, damper noise or noise from key action?  Is it some artifact that arises in the recording process?  Is it a problem in data transmission?  My equipment?

Help!  I find this soooo bothersome.  Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere, I am new to Spotify, trying to perhaps shift from Pandora.  I do not hear this problem there...
