After YouTube’s search results are served, the familiar 30-second cut of the song created by Baauer will begin playing and the YouTube logo will begin to dance by itself (no helmet though). Then when the drop kicks in, the rest of the search results begin pulsing wildly.
Here’s a video of it in action via YouTube users bavogames:
