nightcore

The practice of making any given song sound more Japanese by raising its speed and pitch.

"Dude, someone made a cover of my favorite song so that it sounds like an anime opening! Was so cool hearing it!"
"Bro... they just sped it up. It's called nightcore."

Nightcore

A genre of music that is normally sped up or higher pitched and usually 99.9% of the time has an anime background. Not many people listen to nor like it.

Nightcore

A whole separate music community. Most people believe that it is just remixes of different songs but, there is so much more than just remixes. For example, dubstep in Nightcore is called Nightstep. Basically, Nighcore is a different reality of music. It is a faster, higher pitched, version of any song. If you were to look up a song but have it played in a different genre of music, such as screamo, then you are more likely to find it in a Nightcore version than to have found it played by someone in that specific genre. You are also more likely to find mashups of songs in Nightcore.

Person 1: "Have you heard the dubstep version of "Light Em' Up" by Fall Out Boy?"
Person 2: "You mean the one in Nightcore?"

Nightcore

One of the worst things mankind has ever created. It was banned in North Korea shortly after its devious creation, DPRK supreme leader Kim Jong Un called it a cancerous abomination, and a nincompoop’s creation. Nightcore are songs remixed to sound like so called ‘hot’ anime 2d characters, only musty fat discord moderators listen to it.

Nightcore is a disease, Kim Jong Un called Nightcore a cancerous abomination

Nightcore

Word Describing three things : The Original Band, The Quality Reworks of songs, The trash music by self-proclaimed artists.

1.) Originally a band remaking trance and electro, consisted of Thomas S. Nilse and Steffen Ojala Søderholm.

2.) With some music skills and time invested into it, there exists plenty of quality Nightcore, raninging in practically any genre, even ones as Rock, Metal, etc. Sometimes even mixed two songs into one.

Quality channels Like Zero Miz-Kun, NightcoreGalaxy, NightcoreLounge, NightcoreReality, and many others like that produce this kind if you are looking for good ones.

3.) This is one i hope you never run into.. The laziest type of remix, with no indivual playing with tunes, no time spent on, etc. This is usually created by self-proclaimed weebs who after finishing their 999999999th sonic "OC" try to (Dis)grace world with some another piece of trash, and just do a quick runthrough on some typical Jpop or pop song. It is usually something that makes you wanna rip your ears off and the quality is terrible. Avoid it, i warned you.

Person : I tried that "Nightcore" you were talking about, i thought i will throw my headphones against wall
Person 2 : Hmm.. probably hit wrong one, you need an artist who takes it seriously
Person : Ok.. ... ... .... ...... It is actually really good

nightcore

sped-up, fast rhythmic beat, and always higher than normal pitch. Almost all nightcore music are original songs nightcored (remixed into nightcore) by nightcore fans, with an anime picture to attract weeaboos.

goes better with pop music in my opinion

"nightcore music enhances the experience of listening to nostalgic pop music"
