The theme was composed by Mark Snow for The X-Files, which premiered on Fox in 1993 and followed FBI agents Mulder and Scully investigating paranormal cases. The whistled motif became a pop-culture shorthand for aliens, conspiracies and the unexplained throughout the show's nine original seasons and later revival. As clips circulated online, the short instrumental became a meme staple for signaling that something strange is happening. It endures because almost everyone recognizes it within two seconds, instantly framing any video as mysterious.
