About this sound

✦ AI

The short Cartoon Network closing sting pitched to G minor, with the Time Warner company tag. Creators use it as a nostalgic logo parody or channel outro.

This brief clip is the Cartoon Network sign-off sound reworked into G minor, so the familiar corporate tagline lands darker and slightly off-kilter instead of bright and corporate. A short musical sting opens the moment, followed by the spoken-style identification of the channel as a Time Warner company, all packed into under three seconds. The lowered pitch gives it a mock-serious, slightly unsettling edge that listeners recognise instantly, even before they place the logo. It works as a punchline because the branding is so familiar: the audience expects a cheerful network ident and instead gets a gloomy, meme-ready version that feels like a joke ending.

The tag comes from Cartoon Network's corporate closing identification, which named the channel as a Time Warner company at the end of its programming. That short corporate sign-off became recognisable through repeated television use, and later clips of it were shared and remixed online as short soundboard sounds. This particular version is altered to G minor, a change that gives the familiar ident a darker, more dramatic tone and makes it popular for parody edits. Its brevity and instant recognition keep it useful as a joke ending rather than a straightforward logo.
