Stupid fuck needs help to make music (2 Viewers)

[São Paulo Punk]

Help please,

I'm feeling very bored and bandless at the moment and was wondering what sort of stuff I should be after for making simple compositions on my computer at home. All I'm after is something duh, duh enough. Not Rave- EJ, but something practical that I can use to put down beats and lovely melodies.

More importantly, it's got to be cheap as fuck cause I'm on Turd World wages and can't splash out on anything fancy. Basically just something to fuck around with in my spare time that could result in at least a very stupid concept ep.

Please send a private message if you can copy stuff and send it in exchange for...something Brazilian.

Please help.

for ease of use and some versitility, i most heartily recommend propellerheads' reason:
http://www.propellerheads.se/

there is a demo up there for downloading
it's also aviable to buy through the site, altho it could be a bit pricey

and of course, whatever you do, don't go and download the disk images with your favourite p2p client (gnutella or fasttrack anyway) - or even pm someone who might have already done so and could burn & post them

Reason is good.
