About this sound

✦ AI

The synth solo from the 31 Minutos theme, a bright Chilean TV tune from 2003, often used for nostalgic intros, edits and meme videos for creators online.

This clip isolates the bright, playful synthesizer solo from the theme of 31 Minutos, the Chilean puppet news show. Over about eleven seconds, a cheerful lead synth dances over a bouncy backing rhythm, with clean, slightly retro tones that feel both silly and triumphant. It sounds like the moment a goofy news segment bursts into life, instantly signalling comedy, nostalgia and low-budget charm. For viewers who grew up with the show, it triggers instant recognition, while for everyone else it works as a light, upbeat musical sting that makes a scene feel funnier and more energetic without needing any words.

31 Minutos is a Chilean children's television series that premiered on TVN in 2003, produced by Aplaplac and built around a puppet news programme. Its theme music, composed by Pablo Ilabaca, became one of the show's most recognisable elements, and this synthesizer passage captures its playful, retro energy. As clips and remixes spread online, the theme was rediscovered by viewers outside Chile and by a new generation who knew it through memes and edits. It remains popular because it instantly evokes the show's absurd humour and childhood nostalgia in just a few seconds.

Pro Tip for Usage

✦ AI

Drop it right as a character appears or a joke lands, then cut the music on the last note so the punchline gets the silence. Pair it with fast zooms or a news lower third, and avoid looping it, since its charm fades when repeated.

Use Cases

✦ AI
  • Introduce a parody news segment in a video.
  • Celebrate a silly win in a gameplay edit.
  • Open a nostalgic Chilean childhood throwback compilation.
  • Punctuate a puppet-style joke in a short.
