About this sound

This remix turns the classic Nokia ringtone into a punchy meme sound effect for edits. Creators drop it over fake phone calls and retro phone jokes.

This clip takes the instantly recognisable Nokia ringtone melody and reworks it into a short, energetic remix. The familiar beeping notes are sped up, layered and given a stronger beat, so the tune feels both nostalgic and new at the same time. It lasts only a few seconds, which makes the drop easy to spot in a fast edit. Hearing it triggers memories of old mobile phones while also working as a joke in itself, as if an outdated ringtone has suddenly taken over a modern video with perfect comic timing.

Pro tip

Place the remix right as a phone appears on screen or a character pretends to answer, and let the full melody play without dialogue over it. Cutting it off early weakens the nostalgia joke, so give it a clean two second tail.

How people use it

Drop it when a fake phone call interrupts the scene.
Use it for retro mobile phone throwback edits.
Play it when an old Nokia appears on screen.
Add it to meme compilations about annoying ringtones.

More information

The melody behind this remix is the Nokia Tune, adapted from Francisco Tárrega's 1902 guitar piece Gran Vals and used as a default ringtone on Nokia phones from the 1990s onward. Its simple notes became one of the most recognised sounds in the world. Online, creators have remixed that tune in countless styles, turning a once ordinary alert into a meme. This short remix version circulates on soundboards and in short videos, where it is used less as an actual ringtone and more as an instant signal for retro tech humour.
