Below is the infamous Netflix sound. Click on the black stemmed noteheads to listen.
A percussive double tap of D’s, Pavlovian chime, and Manchurian trigger all rolled into one. Inspired by the Law & Order sound, the Netflix sound was first heard in the original series House Of Cards when Kevin Spacey knocks twice on the oval office desk. This was years before he got metoo’d by Daryl from Adventures in Babysitting.
The streaming service now uses the Spacey knock for all of its shows and even when you turn to the channel on your smart TV, always accompanied by their red Satanic logo, whether in documentaries about murderers or animated pornography disguised as children’s entertainment. The double D-tap has a Zimmerian flavor with its heavy drums up front. As far as bumpers go, it’s no HBO, but neither is the channel.
They don’t call it “programming” for nothing. Humans are bio-computers that can be programmed. “Media” is named for the Greek Witch who ate her children, and “holly” is the wood used for witches’ wands. Mass media is nothing more than MKULTRA for the whole family. The Netflix sound will implant itself deeply into the Zoomer psyche, and who knows what the hell it’s really for?
