Get some kind of midi controller for sure. It really doesn't matter too much what it is you can get a keyboard type or an mpcish drum pad type and you can pretty much chop drum and play and both bot obviously one is better for playing and the other for chopping and drumming. But definitely get a midi device so you're not just programming your drums/basslines/chops. Software Fruitloops works I can't vouch for it but it's their you can also try out ableton which is another good software for beats which is what I use. From their go watch beatmaking videos on youtube and figure out how those people do it and try and copy until you learn the basics.


I don't know what software you can get for free but you can always bootleg...
