From Wikipedia
Digicore (originally known as draincore) is an Internet microgenre of hip-hop and electronic music that developed alongside hyperpop in the late 2010s to early 2020s. The genre is typically made up of artists that share stylistic similarities to Drain Gang and 100 gecs, rather than the "bubblegum bass" musicians signed to the label PC Music. It chiefly draws influence from trap, emo rap, nightcore and cloud rap.
During the late 2010s, the style initially emerged as a Drain Gang-inspired form of online rap music known as "draincore". In 2018, Dalton, a figure in the digicore scene, started a Minecraft and Discord server called "Loser's Club", which became a hub for several of the most popular artists within the digicore scene such as Quinn, Kmoe, Glaive, Ericdoa and Midwxst. The early scene was centered around SoundCloud collectives such as Blackwinterwells' Helix Tears and Prblm's Novagang. Other notable groups include Bloodhounds, Slowsilver03, Graveem1nd, Co-op, Varsity and Goonncity.
