What should I go about buying to make some rap beats, and techno style stuff?

Question by m1k39: What should I go about buying to make some rap beats, and techno style stuff?
How would I go about doing this? Are most of the techno / rap beats put together digitally though the comp or is there a hardware device that I could buy? I have no idea where to start, any help would be much appreciated…

    Please read this answer, I have a lot of experience with making beats and techno songs. First of all, it is easiest to make hip-hop beats on a computer, and for techno you can really only use a computer for there is no real synths. To start off, I would either use Garageband if you are on a Mac or FL Studio if you are using a PC. To learn how to use these you can watch some tutorials on Youtube. It is easier to make beats and techno music if you have a keyboard plugged into your computer via a MIDI-USB cord. This is really not necessary, in fact I made a techno song that is now on Amazon and soon be on iTunes with solely the computer. Here is the link:
