An evolving genre of electronic music. Often combines instrumental/orchestral leads with extremely fast and complex beats and
rapidfire melodies. Stays at the extremes in terms of tone; either so
upbeat it makes you sad out of jealousy at how upbeat it is, or just plain scary and depressing. Not very well-known in the musical world, as there are very few artist who actually produce it. However, its fast beats and complicated melodies have made it very popular in rhythm games such as Osu. Made by
xi, ICE,
Sakuzyo, occasionally by
Yooh, and a few other, mostly Japanese composers. A pretty good pick for anyone who likes classical music but thinks it lacks power, or people who like
DnB but think it lacks melodic variety. Sometimes combined with
speedcore or trance. The only problem is that you sound super pretentious when you say it.

2: Sure!
1: Here you go, although it's mostly
melodic dubstep and
artcore.
2:
Artcore? Is that what edgy kids these days are calling pop?
1: No, it's completely different. It's--
2: No wait. I'm sure it's "super artistic" because it mentions one
world issue and throws a backhanded comment about how shallow teenagers are.
1: jUSt try listening to it.
2: Fine.
1: *hits play*
2: Woah, this is lit! Hit me up with the whole playlist!
