music beginings

hey there fellow trance addicts, just a few q's on begining to make my own music. basically where do i begin? i screwed around with a friends version of fruity loops and was able to make some basic samples and a few "tunes". i just need some more info on where to go from here. i have no musical talent at the moment, just doing this as a hobby. but i wanna take it further and i just need to know where to go for some help. any web sites that can help would be handy. the FL web page is good but u have to own the product in order to get any help which is useless as i don't own the product yet. any help would be appreciated. thx

There is an absolute buttload of information >here< and on these forums.

Fruityloops is great for starting out, you can find some freeware VST instruments >here< (I recommend 'synth 1')

also download some midi files and see how good melodies are created.

There are no rules to producing, just experiment and have fun

I find it amazing that you took the time to write all that out, yet (apparently) didn't read the stickes.

Those threads at the top that say things like "READ HERE BEFORE YOU POST"

I think the stickies should be in font size 70
to avoid all these questions by all the semi-blind or lazy people.
