Its a genere of… music. If you want to call it that. They basically just speed up and pitch up the song to make it sound like its being sung by a mouse version of themselves and then boom nightcore remix.
I dont usually post links because of tracking and what not but i dont know how else to show you its loud btw. This was one that i found as a teen that i didnt hate as much.
Don’t forget that adding anime tiddies to the cover art and/or thumbnail is also mandatory these days.
I don’t trust the official history of this sort of thing. I maintain that this whole thing got popularized by the Caramelldansen debacle. In the good old days, if a DJ wanted to speed up a track to make it up-tempo for dance floor use it was also mandatory to add some drum and bass elements, and if you had access to the split tracks probably just reinvent the bassline, hook, and melody altogether. You know, things that took actual effort.
Nowadays anybody can open an .mp3 in Audacity and speed it up by 30% and call it a “remix.”
Thats sad if they actually consider what they are doing art. Ive been out of the loop for a while but when I saw people making this stuff 15 years ago, it seemed like a thing a niche community was doing. I dont think anyone took it seriously. I still find songs that sound better sped up like this one is very funny try this one at 1.5 or 1.75 speed. Game changer kinda hits like rapgod from eminem
And on the topic of nightcore being art or not; who cares? Art doesn’t have to be this totally involved thing for every person’s every project. Making minor alterations to other people’s work is its own style and form of creative exploration and, if encouraged and engaged with sufficiently, can easily grow into something with more luster and prestige. And besides that, some songs do just be sounding better when played faster and higher than intended. Artists or not, good on em for playing around and finding the ones work.
True. But at the same time If little to no effort is being put in, it does ride the line of being fair use. So if they are monitizing it which i dont think they were doing 15 years ago I find that kind of scummy. but other than that i look at it as the same thing as those AMVs back in the day. Just something someone made for the love of the source material.

Second verse slapped harder than expected.

Your description was accurate. Thank you
If you put it like that, than I can see how birds are nightcore dinosaurs.
Alternatively, a bird version
