Crescendo 

(noun) The main moment of ecstasy. Specifically the culmination and meeting of two lovers’s orgasms, both at their apex, as they occur simultaneously.
Nikki could feel the spasms that jerked through Shannon’s body continue to gain force and he knew she would be there soon. Barely able to control his own body, Nikki saw her throw her head back, eyes glazed and ready, her magnificent breasts, nipples like bullets, pointed upwards, she quickly threw her arms around him with nails digging flesh, and her lips parted in an attempt to voice her body-jolting release as she produced a high pitched squall. Nikki’d lost his voice, mind blown to where speech was unknown, he still pushed and pushed, though he had no control of the waves of spasms taking control of his body. They both were coming hard and fucking long, all their practice made them able to reconnect to this world at the same time as they always found one another at the crescendo of their lust marathons.

Crescendolling 

The practice of driving around listening to dance music and then exiting the car at convenient times to begin dancing, usually with the intent of encouraging strangers to join in.

It is also generally performed at night so as to not excessively block traffic.

When crescendolling, it is advised that the driver remain in the car to control the music.

Crescendocore is a umbrella term for a wide variety of musical genres. The majority of popular crescendocore lies in the post rock and shoegaze genres.
It's a joining of the word 'Crescendo' and the suffix '-core.' The latter does not imply a connection to Hardcore music, it just states that it is a term for a genre of music.

What crescendocore implies is a heavy emphasis the characteristic in music of a long tension and release in the form of a large dynamic change - that is; getting very loud. This usually happens very quickly and is also marked by changing tonal and duration structures.

Several well known crescendocore acts include:

-Slint

crescendo clapping

When at a live musical performance, the audience claps to a beat, but it sounds like a crescendo due to members of the audience being musically inept and thus unable to clap on beat. Found at most shitty bands performances for obvious reasons.
Jonathan: My girlfriend drug me to a Nickleback concert and the audience was crescendo clapping to all their shitty songs and it made it even worse than it already was!

Ron: Damn.
