The Spasskaya Tower is the main tower on the eastern wall of the Moscow Kremlin, overlooking Red Square. Its clock, known as the Kremlin Chimes, has marked the hours for centuries and is closely linked in Russia with New Year broadcasts and state ceremonies. Online, recordings of the chimes were remixed with heavy bass for meme edits, turning a familiar national symbol into an exaggerated sound for dramatic reveals, ironic announcements and patriotic montages shared across video platforms.
