Nice work bro! |
|
| Sometimes by garshar | 3 years ago |
Hey, I've got this on a CD somewhere! |
|
| Lift Me Up by garshar | 3 years ago |
Keep it up bono junior! |
|
| Violet by garshar | 3 years ago |
You're getting a great pro sound there, crystal clear and clean, great song. |
|
| If He Can by garshar | 3 years ago |
Nice one Gary, great production, really clear, nice vocals and guitar |
|
| Just Another Heartbreak by teespace | 4 years ago |
Great vocals and guitar, with a cool live sound |
|
| Dispossession by tetsuya | 4 years ago |
Great stuff, based on what I have heard so far I think you have excellent prospects in realising your dream to become a pro guitar player. Keep up the good work. |
|
| jazz/funky instrumental by tetsuya | 4 years ago |
Great lead guitar, although to my ears it would sound better with less distortion. You certainly got your chops down. Wish I could play lead as smooth as this! Nice one. |
|
| I Need To Know by JD | 4 years ago |
This is really very good. It's a song that soars. I wish I had more time to spend on icomp, to be able to find more gems such as this. |
|
| YESTERDAY'S DICE by Barretok | 4 years ago |
Love the vibe with this. Some memorable guitar lines here. Perhaps a little less reverb on the guitar, but this is just personal taste. |
|
| Hearts & Arms Entwined by jayman | 4 years ago |
This is classic. Love the intro, and when the bass and drums come in you sit up and take notice. Sends shivers down my spine. |
|
| Blue Line Blues (your offsides) by pete | 4 years ago |
Guitar sounds great on this pete, love the chord work and the initial lead riff. Can I nab this as a loop?  |
|
| Manifestation by 4arms | 4 years ago |
Great instrumentation, love the backing on this one. Seems quite different to your other work, your musical range is impressive. Vocals reminiscent of Bauhaus/ Joy division (main chord progression and opening lines reminded me of Bela Lugosi's dead!) Nice one. |
|
| Now by LWinston | 4 years ago |
It always amazes me how you get that big, punchy sound out of Garageband. Great stuff! |
|
| TicToc by cove | 4 years ago |
Been a while since I checked out your stuff - I'm glad you're still uploading some great quality tracks. Really enjoyed this one. I like the way you used the applause as a sample that you mixed into the track. Great guitar work and production. I think I might nick some of those chord progressions! |
|
| Between Glass by AshleyBeanHead | 4 years ago |
Wow! Great production skills - I can tell you're at pro at this stuff. Seamless use of loops here, it's a real inspiration. Thanks for posting this |
|
| RainFall by JoeGooch | 4 years ago |
Very cinematic. Excellent |
|
| Sympathetic Weight Gain by 4arms | 4 years ago |
| I really enjoyed this, catchy chord progression and lovely sounding guitar. The lyrics are great fun! I could imagine this song working really well within a movie. |
|
| You Won't Break Me (Unbreakably Rock-Solid Mix) by MissRedd | 4 years ago |
Great stuff - not really my type of music but I can appreciate the work and skill that went into this. |
|
| Where The Hell Were You? by MissRedd | 4 years ago |
| This is a good first track. There's nothing wrong with using loops - check out LWinston's music, he's probably this site's best example of what can be achieved with loops. |
|
| Smell of Coffee by Dyl | 4 years ago |
Real nice production, great song and excellent collab. The vocals really remind me of coffee: rich, dark, with a little bite! |
|
| All Night by cove | 4 years ago |
Great production, got a real live, airy feel. Inspiring guitar work, nice pianos. |
|
| Creole Queen by pete | 4 years ago |
Hi pete, nice track, lots of great ideas there. |
|
| "Unity" (Canción de amor) by Filmscorz | 4 years ago |
Nice trumpet! |
|
| Music by LWinston | 4 years ago |
One of your best for sure. No-one else makes Garageband sound this good! |
|
| Untitled (Nothing) by LWinston | 4 years ago |
Another nice track from the loop master! Lloyd, you could make I living writing for TV, games, movies, I reckon. |
|
| 12th Hr by cove | 4 years ago |
Great guitar work as always, and the trademark Cove chord progressions! Welcome back. |
|
| Searchlight by Tadashi | 4 years ago |
| Still one of my favourite tracks. Inspiring, understated guitar work. Perhaps the solo is a bit overdone though. | |
| Casino Royale (JAMES BOND THEME) by amandachapman | 4 years ago |
John Barry would have been proud to have written this! You're voice is perfect for this track. You should pursue this, you'd make a top James Bond Theme Diva! |
|
| Shattered Dreams by zallaz | 4 years ago |
 Reminds me of Burning Blue Soul-era Matt Johnson (pre-The The). This track has great potential. |
|
| Questionaire by zallaz | 4 years ago |
The bar for Garageband tracks has just been set higher. Great stuff. |
|
| RAMSEL vs Predator: by RAMZAR | 4 years ago |
Top slice of funk-rock fusion. Pro guitar work. Another great collab. |
|
| Blade RAMSEL by RAMZAR | 4 years ago |
Bonkers piece! Great stuff, great collab. |
|
| On My Mountain by itiswotitis | 4 years ago |
What an awesome collab! Great guitar work, production, beautiful vocals, I'm downloading this now. |
|
| DIsappearing From My Mind/Soliloquy by 4arms | 4 years ago |
Beautiful guitars as always, lovely harmonies on the backing vox. Great, clear production, the subtle strings are just perfect. One of your best, I think. I could see this working in a movie. |
|
| Choirdirector's Lament by dirigent | 4 years ago |
Incredible use of the Garageband and Logic sounds. Wow! |
|
| Sing me softly of Soweto by Filmscorz | 4 years ago |
Very atmospherice and I bet it fits the film perfectly. I'd love to get into writing for film ... Thanks again |
|
| "Knock @ The Door"-FULL SCORE! by Filmscorz | 4 years ago |
Love the orchestration. I like the discordant rumblings I can hear in the background that signals the dark side to this chap, before the dramatic transition. Reminds me of Howard Shore - is he an influence? Thanks for sharing your work with us! So who plays the sweet old serial killer - gotta be Robin Williams surely?! |
|
| "Lunar Eclipse" by Filmscorz | 4 years ago |
Just lovely. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your stuff! |
|
| shootr the muse (collab) by plexaura | 4 years ago |
Great work guys, the bass really adds to the track. And great guitar work there naz. Unfortunately, I added my guitar parts to the wrong version! So now we have two very different versions of a great track! http://www.icompositions.com/music/song.php?sid=59252 I actually think your version now doesn't need any more guitar, but would as nealbowen said be awesome with a bit of trumpet or another instrument. |
|
| Breathe! by MellowSun | 4 years ago |
| Thanks guys. Inspired by Pink Floyd, hence the title. Similar progression, different phrasing though I think. | |
| Home Town by MellowSun | 5 years ago |
| Thank you jotho, fromano, pete, dylan, 4arms, jdwyer05, jkane and naz for your nice comments, I really appreciate the feedback! | |
| Hep Kep by pete | 5 years ago |
Wow, this is nice. I discovered this by accident the other day, having not visited icomp for a while. Very creative use of the loops here, I really love the vocal. In my view, it's a shame my latin guitar loops didn't scale that well to the slower tempo, sounding a bit 'warbly'! Pete, next time, if you need a version of any loop at a different tempo, just drop me a line and I'll record one for you. |
|
| Mr The Web To You by JoeGooch | 5 years ago |
Great vocals! |
|
| Something Like That by Matt Granz | 5 years ago |
The vocals are so clear, I'm surprised to hear you say they were recorded with the built-in pinhole mic. The guitars complement the song perfectly. Great work! |
|
| Then Came This by LWinston | 5 years ago |
This track really kicks ***. |
|
| Genesis by JD | 5 years ago |
I love this. The drums and guitar work perfectly together. Where did you get these loops? |
|
| Wondrous Story (Final Mix) by JD | 5 years ago |
Can't believe I've missed this one until now. Fantastic collab guys, sounds like you're all in the studio playing together, seamless. Love the horns. My only gripe would be that some of the guitar solo work feels a little over the top for this track, but that's just my 'less is more' tendency. |
|
| Chase by raisin427 | 5 years ago |
I'm listening to this on my new Sennheiser headphones. Wow. What a great atmosphere, dark and spooky. |
|
| Traveler at time by Tadashi | 5 years ago |
Right now i'm rediscovering fusion and this is just perfect for the mood I'm in right now. Music is truly the universal language. Beautiful and fun at the same time. |
|
| Searchlight by Tadashi | 5 years ago |
Wow, so glad I found this track. Great beat and melody, and love the guitar work. I hope you don't mind if I put this on my iPod! |
|
| Dust me down by MellowSun | 5 years ago |
| Thanks for your feedback guys. Agree about the reverb - we were a bit reverb happy in the old days! | |
| Anger Management (w/Ray La Veau) by JD | 5 years ago |
Great collaboration guys, love the guitar playing and the backing track is just spot on! |
|
| Sleepy Open D by cove | 5 years ago |
It's got those trademark cove chord progressions and guitar licks. Great stuff. |
|
| Electronic guitar loop by RottenApple | 5 years ago |
Sounds nice - is that one of the GB software instrument sounds? |
|
| Your Decadence is the Abstinence (remix) by Mystified | 5 years ago |
Great collab, vocals fit really well with the backing, has a real 'live' feel to it, as if I'm listening to you guys playing in my front room! Reminds me of the gigs we used to play ... |
|
| Groovy (A Sexy Turn) by LWinston | 5 years ago |
Hey there Lloyd, I love the guitar loop you've used there, where is it from? |
|
| ShineDog 3 by JoeGooch | 5 years ago |
| Res Evil!! | |
| ShineDog 2 by JoeGooch | 5 years ago |
| Starts great, and I'm waiting in anticipation for the beat to come in .... and it doesn't! Let's have a remix. | |
| Shinedog track 1 by JoeGooch | 5 years ago |
Dude you should shorten this one a bit for web consumption. |
|
| Blues By The Quayside by JoeGooch | 5 years ago |
Great work Joe, impressed by how quickly you've set this up. Fantastic track too, this is going on my iPod. |
|
| Street symphony by alexandre | 5 years ago |
Great stuff, I'm not a hip hop fan but this is pretty cool. This would work well in a game, e.g. GTA San Andreas or the like. |
|
| SHARP SWORDS by alexandre | 5 years ago |
Great beat and the strings work really well, I'll be listening to more of your stuff for sure! |
|
| Manu Chao by Dyl | 5 years ago |
| Great performance all round! He's got a great future ahead of him. | |
| Stuck In The Swing by cove | 5 years ago |
Another download for my iPod. |
|
| warm inside by mick66 | 5 years ago |
Great instrumental mick. This could be a commercial track - I could see this being used by the BBC or in a film, excellent stuff. |
|
| I want you [rain mix] by mick66 | 5 years ago |
Nice work and great collab guys! |
|
| No Sense by cove | 5 years ago |
Great sound and nice guitar work as we've come to expect. Loved the subtle use of the whammy bar! |
|
| T For Texture by cove | 5 years ago |
Nice guitar work as always. Is that an Ovation you use? |
|
| When the smoke clears by MellowSun | 5 years ago |
| My brother Joe used to be in a metal band. Maybe that's where it comes from! | |
| me and you2 by j0j0 | 5 years ago |
Great stuff, and happy birthday. Nice of you to share your present with us. |
|
| Salinity (Granz's guitar mix) by Baboon | 5 years ago |
Nice work guys, great guitar work, agree with ddball, sounds a bit Floyd, which is a good thing! Vocals sound a bit overcompressed on my speakers though. |
|
| Light by LWinston | 5 years ago |
Just discovered this one. What a cool track! I think I'd like to put some Ronny Jordan-style guitar lines over the top of this one. Love the key change at the end. |
|
| rio grande lingerie (engrish only) by voidmstr | 5 years ago |
This is very unusual and original. Great idea and nicely executed. Let's hear more from you voidmstr! |
|
| Lake Powell, unplugged by pete | 5 years ago |
Nice tune and nice playing. Congrats on selling this one. Who knows what doors iComp can open? Regards, Phil |
|
| Herringbone Flip Flops by pete | 5 years ago |
Ooh, I liked this a lot. Great, smokey sound. I am picturing scenes from a David Lynch film while listening to this. |
|
| All This Time (with vocal) by DaveM | 5 years ago |
Wow, fantastic production. Love the Bryan Adams-ish suspended guitar work. |
|
| My song by DaveM | 5 years ago |
Yeah, nice laid back and funky. Guitar sounds great, love the hammond keys in the background. You've got a great voice there Dave. |
|
| Another Day by 4arms | 5 years ago |
Love the piano, I'd like to hear the guitar ever so slightly a bit more though - they're just about there on headphones, but through my speakers you can't quite make them out as clearly. Backing vocals are spot on too. I would like to hear an acoustic bass gently bubbling along in the background too. |
|
| Hand in Hand by 4arms | 5 years ago |
Yes, I agree, the vocals probably need to sit back a bit in the mix, and the lead guitar sounds a bit thin. But the song is strong and with a bit more work on the production it's a winner! |
|
| WhatchaGonnaDo ? by jkane | 5 years ago |
Great sound, reminds me a bit of later Peter Gabriel (post-So). Glad I found this one. |
|
| GTR Sterio by cove | 5 years ago |
| I know I've already commented on this, but I just can't stop listening to this track. Sends a shiver down my spine every time. Driving my wife nuts air-guitaring along to it, pretending I'm Al Di Meola with his Ovation, riffing along to it ... I wish. | |
| Fields Of Gold by mccello | 5 years ago |
If Sting heard this he'd love it. As would Peter Gabriel I bet - the intro reminds me of the soundtrack he did to Last Temptation of Christ. |
|
| Blue Waltz for Cello and G5 by mccello | 5 years ago |
Wow. I used to play the cello many years ago. You have inspired me to return to this beautiful instrument. You should be working with guys like Martin Taylor. Flawless stuff, and great idea - HOTRS on cello - brilliant! |
|
| Make Believe (final version) by mccello | 5 years ago |
Not normally my kind of music but this is flawless. Where are the vocals from? |
|
| Jazz Jungle by mccello | 5 years ago |
Mr jdwyer05 pointed me in your direction and I'm very glad he did ... this is going straight on my iPod. Fantastic stuff. The trumpet playing and rhythm are perfect. It's the sort of stuff Miles would have been doing today if he was still with us. |
|
| Running away by jkane | 5 years ago |
Nice guitar sound, really like the production. Got a good, original sound, makes me want to listen to it again. It's too short though! |
|
| Wasted Sun by MellowSun | 5 years ago |
| Appreciate the feedback folks. This is one of the best songs we have written I think (although others feel differently). If there's support, I could upload our back catalogue. Let me know | |
| Sister Europe by Matt Granz | 5 years ago |
Ah, I'm glad I found this, I'm a big P. Furs fan. Nice, dark atmosphere, like the vocal effects and guitar work. I felt the vocals could be a bit stronger though, need a bit more 'oomph', to my ears at least. |
|
| Fire by JD | 5 years ago |
Another nice use of loops here. Composing with loops is great fun and rewarding, isn't it. Always brings a smile to my face. |
|
| Grace by JD | 5 years ago |
Those Southern Guitar loops are beautiful aren't they. You've used them to great effect here. |
|
| Heading West by JD | 5 years ago |
Hi, this is down as a pure loop-based track, is this correct? If so, you seem to have a talent for creating great compositions purely from loops! Nice one. I think the track could be improved with some use of the stereo field, to emulate the sound of two guitarists jamming off each other. |
|
| Bee the One by Matt Granz | 5 years ago |
Great retro sound, excellent vocals. Nice one! |
|
| Wed by cove | 5 years ago |
Another beauty |
|
| Quicky Acct Version by cove | 5 years ago |
Solid, inspiring guitar work. |
|
| Helpin by cove | 5 years ago |
cove - the next Dave Grusin. Someone commission an album and a film soundtrack from this guy! |
|
| GTR Sterio by cove | 5 years ago |
Another beautiful piece by cove, just the best guitar work ever. Perfect listening for summer afternoons. |
|
| Two Chord Wounder by cove | 5 years ago |
Lovely guitars, beautiful sound. Playing reminds me a bit of Martin Taylor. Great stuff! |
|
| A Change of Seasons Part 1 (Dream Theater Cover) by macdude02 | 5 years ago |
Awesome sound, great production. The amount of work you have put into this is incredible. I don't know the original, but this sounds just perfect. A guitar hero for the 21st century indeed. Keep up the good work! |
