Lloyd's career continued as a recording engineer in the music industry after completing the successful 1985 DCI season, working locally in Plainfield, IL, then Chicago, and finally New York City. His work led him on travels throughout the entire country, as well as Ireland and England, working with artists such as Depeche Mode, Erasure, Mathew Sweet, Madonna, and earning Platinum records with Vitamin C and Fuel.

The business side of music began to change in the late 90's, and Lloyd decided to change careers and revisit his love for the artistic and educational side of music.
