Instrumental would be best, but some pleasant singing would also be okay.
Nothing shrill or too experimental.

75 Dollar Bill are a good contender, although they are a bit too noisy sometimes.
Portico Quartet actually do feature drums and electronic beats (and are mostly pretty lame overall).
Tabla Tarang is not really what I was looking for, but it's a great album that I haven't known before, so thanks for that!
