The retarded version of music that should be considered copyright. It's pretty much just music with squeaky voices for weeaboos.

A sad excuse for a genre of music.

Nightcore is a genre of music mostly made up of sped up songs, such as good music from the band "groove coverage" wich the "Nightcore" versions have more views than the originals.

A "Nightcore artist" uses programs like windows movie maker, or camtasia studio to add a picture of what is usually a girl from a japanese anime, and they speed the music up a bit and call it original and a "remix."

Nightcore is characterized by a sped-up melody (sometimes), fast rhythmic beat (usually), and ALWAYS higher than normal pitch.

A genre that originated from as a subgenre of trance and/or techno, and is still considered so by many people.

Eventually got a life on its own.

Original Nightcore fans prefer to not be associated with trance and don't like the idea of naming a "nightcore" as anything else.

Almost all nightcore music are original songs nightcored (remixed into nightcore) by "Modern Nightcore Fans"

Sub Categories are:

Nightcore (Original): Trance and or techno speed up.

Nightcore (Modern): The Title Nightcore has been more or less stolen and got a life on its own, and refers to many genre speed up and increased pitch.

Switching vocals: Nightcore tag/genre generally new singers switching male and female parts.

Nightstep: A dubstep song that has either increased tempo, pitch or both.

Negative Nightcore: Song is faster but the vocals are in a lower pitch (sounds like a male voice).

Anti-Nightcore is any song that is created by slowing down the melody (sometimes), a slow rhythmic beat (usually), and ALWAYS making the pitch lower than the norm.

Daycore: Slower tempo and lower pitch. Generally consists of fast house/happy hardcore tracks slowed down to sound like they are being sung by male vocalists.

Daystep: Slower tempo and lower pitch for a Dubstep song.

Nightstyle: It is fairly unknown genre and is considered as a hardstyle/jumpstyle genre.
It looks like nightcore genre is getting more and more popular in these days, despite not being true to the original style

Nightcore is a type of music, usually, a parody of an original song, but converted into a faster, (sometimes low quality) version of itself.

It can be used as a torture device to some.
person 1: "Do you like nightcore?"

person 2: "That high-pitched, ear-destroying music?"

person 2: "I don't like it"

An awful "genre" of music that weaboos use as an excuse to sound creative or interesting. In reality, it's usually some j-pop or mediocre song sped and pitched up, then posted under the youtube name "kawaii san 43795." Once they have graced us with their creation (along with half a dozen sonic Oc's), they proceed to disprove Christianity in the comments section of a linkin park video.
Filthy Weaboo: I love you chinchin chan. I wrote you this song so you will be my waifu. It's a carameldansen nightcore.
Waifu: drink bleach.

usually "nightcore" is taking a good or a semi-good song, speeding it up and putting it in a higher pitch and then putting a techno beat on it. then you put your name on it because your a "music artist"
"nightcore creator" - check out my new song "Blue Nightcore - If I Die Young"
"random victim" - DUDE! you just ripped of The Band Perry
"nightcore creator" - no this is my original song, cant you see how creative i am?
"random victim" - *facepalm*
