I agree with Polak that EDM music requires great creativity to come up with hooks/melodies/beats/engineering.
But on the other hand I think DJ has a point that "rock" or traditional instrument based musicians require not only same creativity as an EDM artist, but also require more "physical talent" to actually play their respected instruments.
To each their own.

This is just what I mean.
The physical, live, acoustic element.
Creativity regardless of the genre requires talent. But I think there is a lot more raw talent involved when you have no computer to perfect your sound, no metronome to keep you in time, when you have to project the notes yourself physically, there is much more involved than when you're projecting your creations digitally and things are more hands off.
It's a bit stunning that there are not more musicians here that can agree with this at least.
To each their own, but you don't need to shove this down my throat (polak). The manner in which you're doing so is not making me care any more for the genre. And your comment about how simplistic it is to play a guitar sounds like something a person who cannot play (or at least not well) would say. It's easier said than done for a lot of people. Do you play an instrument yourself?
