All We Know was released in 2016 by American DJ duo The Chainsmokers, featuring American singer Phoebe Ryan, following their breakthrough hit Closer. Built around piano, tropical house influences, and a downtempo electropop drop, the song became a staple of mid-2010s pop playlists. Online, short excerpts circulate on soundboards as instant mood cues, allowing editors to reference the whole track with a single recognisable fragment rather than using the full recording in videos, edits, and social posts.
About this sound
Short clip from All We Know by The Chainsmokers featuring Phoebe Ryan, the 2016 electropop hit used for edits, transitions and nostalgic music memes.
This is a brief snippet from All We Know, the melodic electropop track by The Chainsmokers featuring vocals from Phoebe Ryan. Even in under a second, the polished synth tone and vocal texture are instantly recognisable to pop fans. Creators use the fragment as a quick musical punctuation mark, adding a wistful, reflective mood to a moment without playing the full song. It works best as a fleeting emotional cue, suggesting distance, memory, or unresolved feelings, rather than as a joke or dramatic sting on its own.
