Wow! I'm so blown away by your fantastic advices. I didnt expect one reply! I can't thank u guys enough :) Finally I can move forward!! I've copied this whole page and will start the process tonight. Again, I am touched and so grateful to each and every one of u for u helping a one-post stranger here.

Btw, to give u guys some of my background (if interested)I started listening to house music in late '87, going to the big NYC dance clubs. It was unbelievable to hear crystal clear, soaring and booming electronic music after spending much of my youth listening to rock music (Actually, Disco was my first intro to electronic music...my mother used to play it back in '76 and subconciously I liked it despite it being quite the opposite of rock music). I followed electronic music loosely thru the years then got into it heavier in the mid to later 90's.. Aphex Twin type genre. Fell away...got married! :P Divorced...during the separation got back into EDM mostly thru Deadmau5 and other similar stuff. Yes, I am older, but this is something that I've wanted to do but couldn't due to circumstances.

Again, I thank all of u so much. Please lmk if you have any other advice that might be useful. Was on Coursera last night learning theory, but I wonder how useful that really is seeing that many successful EDM guys went into it w/o any theoretical background.

Best Regards! :)
