nightcore

As yet unrecognized genre of the music that originated on the Internet, more specifically YouTube. Some people claim to be the creator of it, but since the original account is no longer active (and no one even remembers what was the nickname of the person) those claims cannot be proved.

The main characteristic of nightcore is its high pitch often accompanied by fast beat. Very often songs that were remixed into trance, are later on remixed one again into nightcore and so many nightcore songs have trance-like characteristics.

Even though almost any song of any genre can be nightcored, trance and techno songs, as well as electro music and all types of dance music (here especially eurodance) are most often used. Some rock and pop songs are also nightcored. Rap and metal are the two genres that are heavily avoided, and there are very few songs remixed into nightcore.

-Is nightcore the same like trance?
-No, it's not.
