I don't know about Tiesto, but if you want to make some Minimal, just drop a cat on the keyboard.

The first step into trance would be to familiarize yourself with the sections of these forums.

get really familiar with the music, the sounds and the feel of it
then go to the production threads and read around for what programs are best for your desires

there is a forum dedicated to production talk...that can help you much better.
Go there. You dont need a keyboard to make dance music. Learn how to use the sequencer and instruments within it first before forcing the use of a keyboard to make trance. Using a keyboard to make music is as simple as having a sound interface that accepts midi, plugging it and setting your sequencer up to acknowledge it.

And if you want to make minimal get Crystal...its a free VST that I know minimal and techno producers use and abuse, its great and has very little hit on the CPU, and also Albino 2.

Hire people to do it for you and slap your name on the cover.
