Question

What's a good program for making things like instrumentals or music, but not an editor?

And it must be free.

And compatible with Windows 7.

By no editors, I mean no things like Audacity.

FL Studio definitely isn't free. I know you said it must be free but there's this one called Magix Music Maker or something which is around £20. It's really good and stuff

Or like, that weird electronic sound like in Pound The Alarm?

It's a MIDI compositor among others. It's not as good as Garageband, but it's for Windows and it's free.

Re: Question

That's an electric sound. Try a bass guitar, bass clarinet or similar instrument to try and simulate it.

Re: Question

Musescore is a fairly easy to use, fairly full featured, and free one.

Re: Question

LMMS is great, or you could use Musescore.

For non-free stuff, I recommend FL Studio or Miles.
