Music Production Software

I am in the market for production software, yesterday I went to Guitar Center and I purchased the Akai Professional MPK49 Keyboard USB MIDI Controller but now I need software and this is where I am confused. I am interested in producing house,trance,reggaeton, R &B and hip-hop.

But there seems to be so many software’s out there for these controllers, I am currently shifting towards CUBASE but I would like some input on any suggestions out there can guide me the way

Ableton is really amazing. It's not a traditional sequencer at all, it's something different. Check it out.
