Hey y'all! I've been into electronic for a while...I'm
wanting to get into it myself. particularly hip hop sounding
beats. I'm really into flying lotus! So where do I start? as
far as software (cheap or free would be preferable) and any
equipment (also cheap, but good, keep in mind i'm looking
for a starting place. not looking to go pro overnight...or
at all really, just want to have fun with it). But primarily
I need some good mixing and beat creating software...I think
haha. I'm really not sure what i need! HELP! thanks a lot!

Get Fruity Loops (with a bunch of VSTi's) or Reason and
start cracking.

reason looks pretty tight. these are pretty much demos it
seems. I'm assuming you've gotta be willing drop at least
300 bucks to get anything decent.

not usually a good idea to link torrents here, esp with mods
lurking around, but there is this one site, some sort of
bay of pirates where one might find that sort
of thing.

I think that sentence needs more commas.
