About this sound

The Bassmatic ringtone from GTA IV, a short electronic phone jingle used for GTA edits, gaming videos and nostalgic phone notification sounds.

The Bassmatic ringtone is a short, punchy electronic jingle from Grand Theft Auto IV that sounds like a classic mobile phone alert with a deep, bouncy bass line and a bright, looping melody. It is instantly familiar to players who spent time customising Niko Bellic's phone in the game, and it carries that same playful, mid-2000s energy when heard outside it. The clip is clean, upbeat and slightly cheeky, making it feel like a notification that is trying a little too hard to get your attention. It works best as a quick audio gag, cutting through a quiet moment with a burst of retro gaming nostalgia.

Pro tip

Drop it the moment a character checks a phone or a message appears on screen, and cut the music underneath so the bass line lands cleanly. Pair it with a quick zoom or text pop-up, but do not loop it more than twice.

Players remember it from long sessions driving around Liberty City and answering calls that moved the story forward. The short jingle later spread through gaming soundboards and video edits, where creators use it to signal a phone call or a sudden message. Its simple bass hook and retro mobile-phone feel keep it useful for nostalgic GTA clips.
