MSN Messenger, Microsoft's hugely popular instant messaging service, dominated online chatting in the early 2000s before social media took over. Its notification sounds became part of everyday digital life for millions of users who signed in after school to talk with friends. The 2002 to 2005 version of the new message alert is especially remembered because it coincided with the service at its peak. Today creators reuse it as shorthand for that era, instantly placing a scene in a time of dial-up connections, custom emoticons and away messages.

The classic MSN Messenger new message alert from 2002 to 2005, a short two-tone chime used in nostalgic videos, memes and edits about old internet chat.
This is the short notification chime that played when a new message arrived in MSN Messenger during the early 2000s. It opens with a soft, bright ding and resolves into a slightly lower second tone, clean and electronic with no voice or music behind it. At under a second long, it is instantly recognisable to anyone who grew up chatting after school, and it carries a warm rush of nostalgia. In a video it signals an incoming message, a reply, or a moment of old-school online excitement without needing any explanation on screen.
