You never have enough iPhone & iPod Touch apps! That’s why we keep feeding your precious touch screen with tiny little glossy icons. This time we have 8 musical masterpieces you should definitely try. Please leave your remarks and suggestions in the comments.
Rock Band | $6.99 | Review | Download
With its near-console quality graphics, varied song selection, and spot-on controls, Rock Band cranks the fun dial to 11
RJDJ | Free | Review | Download
Often dubbed as a mind twisting hearing sensation or the trippy soundtrack for your life, RJDJ is one of the greatest experiments ever seen on the iPhone.
Groovin’ Blocks | $1.99 | Review | Download
If you’re a fan of techno beats and pulsating lights, you’ll probably like Groovin’ Blocks. It has rhythm at its soul and puzzling at its heart
Melodica | $0.99 | Review | Download
Those of you who were awestruck by Close Encounters’ climactic orchestral scene will have a blast creating your own out-of-this world beats using Melodica
Shazam | Free | Review | Download
Shazam is more a technology wonder than an iPhone app; with this crazy tool you can scan (tag) any music that you are listening to (on the radio, TV, at the pub wtvr) and you get the band & the name of the track. Brilliant!
Guitar Rock Tour 2 | $4.99 | Review| Download
Guitar Rock Tour 2 is a great follow-up to the original, and it’s certainly on par with, if not better than, any of the other Tap-to-the-Tune games available on the iPhone and iPod touch
Fluxtunes | $0.99 | Review | Download
A smart alternative to your built-in iPod music player, FluxTunes’ beauty resides in its ability to effortlessly peruse and play your music library while generously accepting sloppy screen taps and swipes, all without taking your eyes off the road
Bloom | $4 | Review | Download
You are provided with a colored screen and a quiet drone. As you tap the screen in various places, different tones play depending on where you tapped. They then loop, creating a unique piece of music on the fly

I haven’t tried the Rockback app yet, though I’ve been tempted a few times!
I think the sheer addiction of Rockband combined with having it with you everywhere just isn’t the best idea… :P

I have tried Orchestra and it’s great to play some classical music.

Bloom is an insane amount of fun to play with. You can find some great things without trying then upon trying to compose something make a whole mess of racket. Thanks for this round up.

As a longterm Eno minimalist music appreciator, this is a perfect platform for the creation of ambient music to ease the mind into rest.

I use Maestro, this app is easy to use. Drag and drop, sharps, flats, BPM modification, save, load, share…
It’s fantastic for music composition!!!
