About this sound

The looping Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya song from the Nyan Cat meme, used in edits, nostalgic posts and chaotic joke videos online.

This clip is the catchy looping vocal melody most people know as the Nyan Cat song, built around the repeated “nyanyanyanyanyanyanya” hook. It has a bright, bouncy, chiptune feel that instantly reads as playful, hyper and a little absurd. Because the loop is so repetitive and upbeat, it quickly turns a normal moment into something intentionally silly or internet-core. Creators use it when they want a scene to feel cute, manic, nostalgic or comically overstimulating without needing any spoken dialogue.

This sound is widely associated with the Nyan Cat meme that exploded online in 2011. The tune comes from the song “Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya!” by daniwellP, and it became inseparable from the pixel cat flying through space with a rainbow trail. Its simple loop, synthetic vocals and hyperactive energy helped it spread across YouTube, remixes and meme culture. People still use it because it instantly signals early internet humor, cute absurdity and nonstop motion in a way few meme songs do.

Pro Tip for Usage

Use this sound right at the start of a fast zoom, rainbow effect or looping reaction clip. It works best with cute chaos or retro visuals, and can get annoying fast if you leave the full loop under talking.

Use Cases

  • Looping a cat meme with rainbow edits.
  • Adding internet nostalgia to old-school meme compilations.
  • Turning a normal pet video into cute chaos.
  • Soundtracking fast, colorful shitpost montages.
