Bring in the Jazz, spread on the funk
Musical Oracle, Madlib, has a fairly extensive project called "Sound Directions" modeled on his first release "Yesterdays New Quintet." If you've listened to anything in this family, Jazz being spun up like it was hip-hop, (Dan the Automator, Mark Farina) then this is probably already on your playlist. That or if you bought the Kill Bill soundtrack, you've probably heard what this genre is capable of.
Built like a soundtrack to a movie that never came, the musical soundscapes tend to make you paint your own picture. A selection from one of my favorite albums is below. If you're looking to get into more of this, I suggestion you check out...
