If you really don't do much with your system outside of music production and browse legit sites, you most likely don't need anything more.
Agreed. Windows Defender is on by default, so OP did have an anti-virus and malware. When you install AVG that usually turns off Windows Defender and AVG is used in its place.

For most people, just stick with Win defender, make sure you don't click on email attachments from people you don't know, and don't click 'Install' or 'OK' for anything that pops-up while browsing the web, and don't go to weird sites.

That will protect you 99.9% of the time.
