Instrumentals (funk, jazz, metal, miles davis, pink floyd)

TheBig3 · 05-02-2005, 06:05 PM

So I have a play list thats all instrumentals bascially for when im doing work. I added some Buckethead the toehr day and realized its sad tone contrasted with the overall "adult" nature of the list. Its mostly Miles Davis with a few other people throw in for jazz and Action Figure Party, and Santan off his first few CD's.

So keeping with the tone of the list, any suggestions for good instrumentals?

Oh Hope Of The States "Black Amnesias" is an absolute must for this...its so dark and dramatic, but with this really amazing underlying beauty...Check it, Baby!
