To me, it’s that they had to come up with a name for it since I doubt anyone would want to admit to liking Linkin Park - In The End (Chipmunk Version) rather than Nightcore Remix by xXRavenXx
that might be it, it’s definitely an odd sub-genre of music, but there are similar things in other samples pulled into other songs. Vaporwave being a fairly similar aesthetic just sort of backwards.
No idea what the etymology of nightcore is, but i’m sure it’s interesting.
no i picked up on that, i guess i just don’t see how it’s supposed to sound edgy.
Perhaps you just perceived it as such and im thinking way too hard about this lmao
