Completely new...

[DJPakMan]

Hey... how's it going?
I am completely new to all this home recording stuff..
I want to become a hip hop producer so I can make beats, lay vocals over them and distribute CDs...
I don't know how to do any of that. Actually, I am making beats on FruityLoops, but its very limited in my opinion.. What's this I hear about samplers? I am very new, and basically my Question is can you send me some links of recording teaching sites?
I am a DJ, I spin Hip-Hop, Drum&Bass and Jungle, and money ain't a thing so whateva equipment you suggest to me, make sure its the best or at least close to it...

Thanks.. Hope someone can help out...

Peace

PakMan
