Terrorcore is a term used by a listener to describe a piece of hardcore techno. Compared to other hardcore genres like breakcore, which uses the influence of breakbeat, and speedcore, which concentrates on exceedingly high beats per minute, terrorcore is a difficult term to define as each listener has a different definition of what terror is.
Terrorcore has been used to describe:
- Tracks between 120 to 500 beats per minute.
- Tracks whose producers use the word 'terror' in their name. For example: Rotterdam Terror Corps.
- Tracks with varying numbers of layers to their sound. ie, a simple construction of bassline and ambient sounds versus tracks that use many sound sources, all often played at the same time (a "busy" track).
