    You need to be more specific. When you say extract different parts of the music, do you mean 'sample' it ie, take complete four bar beat out of a song.

    or

    Separate different elements such as drums, vocals, guitars and have them as separate tracks?

    The first one is possible, but the second, is pretty much impossible, and any effort spent doing it will not yield promising results.

    However if you want to take whole samples (ie segments that including all parts of the track) Sound Forge by sony is the bees knees for chopping up audio files.

    it aint free, but im sure a crafty internet user such as yourself could find a way around that. There are otherfree programs such as Audacity, but im not a huge fan. Get Sound Forge

    A really nice piece of software I used for chopping up songs for loops and samples was Propellerhead's ReCycle. Sorry,it's not free.
