Vinyl stop effect. Quickly slowing the whole track down to nothing. Probably done as post-mixdown edit, judging by the abrupt change straight after.

Max for Live has Pitch Drop.

Logic you can draw in a pitch fade, right to zero.

Use virtual DJ software or borrow a CDJ.

Or put it in a sampler and do it with pitch envelopes or severe pitch bend.

Another option is to automate the transpose function in the envelope of a warped audio clip. You could try duplicating your (I'm assuming MIDI) track , freezing it, flattening it, and then transposing that particular clip section down very rapidly. See 2:00 of the second video of this tutorial posted to my webpage:

Glitch Effects – Tons of Ideas for Creating Glitchy Tracks or Adding Glitch Effects

Note that this gives you a lot of flexibility as well as you can try out all of the different warp functions: complex, texture, tones, etc.
