Thanks for the reply! I've actually found one that does this and much more - Cthulhu from Cfer Records. Appreciate the help though!

it will help you gain understanding as to why a certain chord has certain notes in it..etc. etc. and once you gain even a little bit of music theory knowledge, it will open your songwriting up.
Yes - you're right of course. Any you might recommend? Particularly with an electronic music slant?
Pop Piano Book is an oldie but goodie.
It kind of requires knowing how to read but you can buy midi/audio files for reference as well.
