Please start here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_music_genres
Add "-step" to the end of each genre.
Make a 4 bar loop of said ::genre::-step, and claim it for your own.
I claim Nangma-step.
next.

wikipedia says
"Different from other styles of electronic dance music (e.g. most forms of house and techno), 2Step does not use a so called "4 to the floor" bass drum, which hits strictly on every beat of a bar (usually those types of music have 4/4 bars and therefore you will have 4 bass kicks per bar, which explains the name of this bass drum pattern). 2Step differs from this scheme as its bass kicks basically skip the 2nd and the 4th beat of each bar. Additionally, besides the first bass kick (which usually rests on the first beat), the other kicks are also moved away from the main beats of the bar and create a busy and skippy feeling. What holds the pattern together is a powerful snare drum on the 2nd and the 4th beat. There may be additional snare drums to add further groove and drive to the pattern, but you will always have a snare drum which emphasizes the 2nd and 4th beat of any bar."
LOL
Techstep (also referred to as tech) is a major subgenre of drum and bass, characterized by a dark, sci-fi mood, near-exclusive use of synthesised or sampled sound sources, and influences from industrial and techno music at the forefront. Although described as having a "techy" feel, techstep's relationship with techno should not be overstated. It shares the technique of creating a high-energy collage from abstract, synthetic noises, including samples, bleeps and squelches: it rarely uses instruments that have not been processed by effects.
DOUBLE GENUINE LOL

...and now, to further add to the confusion, as well as the established dnb sub-genre of the same name, tech-step is also being used to describe dubstep type music that has more metallic industrial/techno/sci-fi sounds in them (like the DnB variant).
You'd hope with 1,000,000 different genre names, they could avoid recycling old ones. :-/
