A large amount of academic assignments assigned to a student at the same general time (about three weeks at most) (i.e. essays, tests, lab reports, quizzes, projects)
Person #1: I have two lab reports, 3 tests, 3 projects, 1 essay, and 2 quizzes this week!
Person #2: Boy, that's some academic wave!

Get the academic wavemug. A genre or subgenre of music that emphasizes percussion as the primary focus, often elevating drums from a background rhythmic role to a lead melodic or emotional driver. Tracks in this style use aggressive, experimental, or unconventional drum patterns—often with glitchy, distorted, or high-intensity textures. It’s less about traditional melodies and more about impact, rhythm, and raw sonic energy.
Percussion Wave tracks can be found across hyperpop, experimental rap, trap, breakcore, and even ambient—if the drums are doing the talking, it qualifies. The genre often leans on techniques like the Machine Gun Kickwave, chaotic hi-hat runs, distorted snares, and unorthodox time signatures.
Coined by artist and producer Some Rando on YouTube (handle: @SomeRandoOfficial) in 2025, it emerged as a descriptor for a new wave of beat-making where percussion is king.

This track ain’t even got a melody—it’s just pure Percussion Wave. The kicks got more plot than a Netflix drama.

Get the Percussion Wavemug. Heat Waves is an amazing DreamNotFound fanfiction on AO3 (Archive Of Our Own) written by tbhyourelame, it's sequel is Helium. Heat Waves is about Dream struggling with his feelings for George and obsessing over the song "Heat Waves", by Glass Animals which gained lots of traction because of the fanfiction. The romance ends up nearly destroying things in the end but they pull through and it is beautiful in the final chapters. It's famous quote is "I burn you?" "You melt me."

Get the get wavesmug. A lame genre of Punk rock that started in the late 1970’s.
It sucks even more than Punk rock itself. And totally lacks any musical merit…many nerdy INTP marxist pseudo-intellectuals think this is good music, when in reality it is really just another infinitesimal watered down form of music and pointless post modernist subgenre belonging to the post WW2 counter culture realm. Post-modernism sucks.
I’m an INTJ and I’d rather listen to corporate rock than this poop. No wave music stinks to high heaven.

Get the No wavemug. When a table of drinkers starts the 'wave,' but instead of throwing their hands in the air, they toast their glasses from one end of the table to the other and back.
Ubisoft and Ignition just did the drink wave at dinner after E3 and it was the shit. invented July 15 2008.
