Lolicon sexuality being expressed in music is not new. However, after the decline of the 1990s nerdcore techno scene in the early 2000s, a new space for lolicon music was needed, and thus a new scene of otaku music emerged (lolicore). The term lolicore was coined by grindcore, noise, and plunderphonics act Princess Army Wedding Combat to describe his style of grindcore and noise music with samples from anime. (Many years later, this style of grindcore would much later be dubbed "loligrind", and become largely forgotten within both the lolicore and grindcore scenes, despite PAWC leaving a lasting mark on the "typical" sound of lolicore.) In 2004, the Japanese electronic music artist CDR under the alias Gunslinger-R would release the digital hardcore EP "Girls In The Guns", with some of the tracks sampling lines from the character Chiyo from Azumanga Daioh, a fictional 10 year old girl who skips many grades through her intellect to be placed in highschool, despite her childish nature still showing. In 2006, the Japanese artist Onomatopeee would release the breakcore, speedcore, noise, and cut'n'paste album "あにこあ", or anicore, the style of which they also called "anicore". あにこあ made many references to various animes, including "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" which makes meta references to otaku culture, and "Bludgeoning Death Angel Dokuro-Chan", in which a busty 12-year-old angel is sent down to Earth to kill a boy who in the future accidentally invents immortality when he purposefully stops all women from aging past 12 to create a "lolicon's world". Girls In The Guns and あにこあ are typically seen as "proto-lolicore" due to neither artist identifying with the "lolicore" label at the time of the release of those albums, despite CDR later labeling his music as such and Onomatopeee later releasing music under textboard 4-ch (4-ch.net, not to be confused with 4chan, which is an imageboard :^) 's DQN board's DQN Electronics netlabel, an internet netlabel reasing lolicore compilation albums. The online collective of artists known as LOLI RIPE released their debut album "jody" in 2006, and was (probably) the first artist to use the term "lolicore" to describe their music after the term was coined by PAWC. Lolicore has no defined sound, as it simply is music stemming from an affinity for lolis and lolicon media in the internet era. However, lolicore *most often* draws from various genres of noise music as well as hip-hop, as well as typically sampling anime vocals and either pitching them up or splicing and looping them. Any music made in the style of the typical residual sounds from the lolicore scene is also typically considered lolicore, whether it is about lolis or not, even if it is not made by a lolicon. Furthermore, expressions of lolicon sexuality in lolicore are also not always as straightfotward as sampling loli characters, as what is considered most important in lolicore is the feelings and emotions of lolicons being expressed through music. Lolicore also very often pokes fun at the perception of lolicons by the general public.
