I got into making house/techno music about a year ago and it's become a life-changing hobby just like getting into tech was. Getting to that point where you start making "listenable" music is unmatched. The best advice that I can give (that you didn't ask for) is to use a reference track as you make a song. It keeps you inspired, allows you to learn from the track, and prevents the kind of listening fatigue that makes it easy to convince yourself your mix is well balanced. It's not- yet :) Have fun!
Yes- it's common to drag a track into Ableton and use that as a reference for a few different reasons. You can try to mimic particular sounds, the structure of the song, or the overall mix. For example, if I like the hat of a particular house song I can try to match the sound and loudness of the hat I'm hearing from the reference, as well as how it's mixed and when it appears. There are a ton of videos on the best to go about using one. Also, if you want to take the route of just trying to copy a song exactly that's a great way to learn. It'll be far off but it's a good exercise to go through.
