"Estoy haciendo..."

"Estoy haciendo..."

Why does the speaker sound like he is making some kind of extra sound before saying the first word "estoy"? I listed to it over and over and it sounds so strange to me - like a "y" or "e" sound before he says "estoy". Am I missing or misunderstanding something? Thanks!

This question relates to:Spanish dictation exercise "New Year's resolutions "

Hola Melissa

I re-listened but honestly I can't hear any extra sound right in the beginning before the first word "Estoy" - It may be a little bit of background noise? 

Saludos
