The original chime comes from Sony's PlayStation 3, released in 2006, where it played as an orchestral tuning sound every time the console booted. That short swell became deeply nostalgic for players who grew up with the system. Bass boosted and earrape edits later exaggerated its low frequencies and volume, turning a calm system sound into a meme format. This version, credited to Flash H, leans into that distortion for TikTok and gaming edits, where recognition in the first seconds makes the excessive drop feel instantly familiar and shareable.

The PS3 startup sound boosted with distortion and earrape volume. Creators use this loud PlayStation 3 boot chime for memes, jumpscares and bass drop edits.
This is the familiar PlayStation 3 startup orchestral swell rebuilt as a bass-heavy earrape clip. It begins with the soft, rising strings of the original boot sound, then quickly overwhelms them with distorted low end, clipping and volume pushed far beyond normal levels. The contrast between the calm, nostalgic opening and the sudden wall of bass is what makes it land. Viewers recognize the console chime instantly, expect something gentle, and instead get a physical, room-shaking hit that feels intentionally excessive and funny rather than musical.
