Starting in the 90's, DJs such as REDALiCe and t+pazolite started to take influence from US and UK rave music, along with a huge dose of samples from anime, J-Pop, video games, and Vocaloid music. They then decided to turn the BPM up to 200, resulting in something that sounds like a combination of Breakcore and the audio of a recording of a first-person shooter gone out of control. Then, in 2006, someone decided to put a label on the mess, and we now have the "J-Core" that we have today
Culture
Due to strict laws on who can and can’t go to clubs, most J-Core festivals are held online, on livestreams, forum threads, and Reddit posts.
