Eligh - Gandlaf's Beat Machine (2000)

This is the first of 3 instrumental albums from Living Legends member Eligh. His production is pretty different from the standard fare of instru albums I post. It kinda odd, not very smooth and has a lot of techno-ish/electronic sampling throughout. I love it so hopefully you will too.

Thievery Corporation - MCCM: The Mirror Conspiracy (2000)

Describing this album is rather difficult. At some points its a reggae-ish mix with electronic then moves onto pure instrumental. It goes from fast paced to slow and chill from song to song. I love this album personally and have been playing it ever since it came out in 2000.


1. Treasures
2. Le Monde
3. Indra
4. Lebanese Blonde
5. Focus On Sight
6. Air Batucada

The Kid Daytona - The Interlude (2010)

This is a free album from The Kid Daytona. I believe this is free because of the samples used would have cost him a fortune and without the samples the production would be rather dull. As it is now though this is excellent music all around.
