Easiest Genre to Make?

Last but not least, chiptune and VG music are apple and orange.

Yep, a specific "chiptune" section would be great because the VG section consists of roughly 50% chiptunes. I put an "8bit" in front of every of my chiptunes to let people know in advance that the song consists of bleeping and white noise, but that's just a makeshift.

1) Add a 4x4 synthesized drum kick
2) Add a simple melody break
3) Repeat 1) and 2)
4) ???
5) Profit

I find it hard to make hardstyle. I mean synthesizing the kick where it sounds hard like hardstyle was very difficult for me.

Somebody said something about bad butt country guitar players.

Show me a Country guitar play that can do this: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=michael+romeo+be tcha+can%27t+play+this+&oq=Micheal+Romeo&gs_l=youtube.3.3.35 i39l2j0i10l8.1312983.1319430.0.1331302.17.15.1.0.0.0.996.509 9.1j3j2j2j3j2j1.14.0...0.0...1ac.1.ynrxBMQXHo4

And a country drummer that can do this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxuYIiGqXWk

And don't get me wrong I do enjoy some country, so I am not dissing on it or anything.

I must admit though, has much as I hate rap, JZ's drummer is epic.

The game....

It's gotten to the point where General BBS users have started posting in it.

It's degenerated THAT far, yes.

I wouldn't say that. A lot of MCs use elaborate rhyme schemes and such, and that takes effort, so not Hip Hop.

I'm no authority on this shit, but I think it might be drone music.

Also, sorry to double post, but I'd like to throw another question in here:

If a style of music is easier to make than another genre, does that give it less worth?

Like, for example, IDM is probably the hardest genre of electronica to create. House is arguably less difficult. Does that mean IDM has more worth that House? Just as an example. We could also compare 50's rock and roll and melodic metal.

There's no right answer to this, an artist usually has a genre which is his forte, if you're really good, and your forte is minimalism, you're probably on par with the most complex trance artists. I mean anyone could make almost anything in any genre too, it doesn't mean it's gonna be great, like if I try to make hiphop, yeah it's sorta there, but it's not good.
