First time post here - cheers, everyone. Great thread.

Instrumental hip hop/turntablist/beat records greats IMO:

recent
Oh No 'Dr. No's Oxperiment'
Jay Dee 'Donuts'
Ghislain Poirier 'Breakupdown'
Sixtoo's 2007 joint
Thes One 'Lifestyle Marketing'
DJ Alibi 'One Day'
Daedelus 'Denies the Day's....'
Madlib - both Beat Konducta records, Blue Note album
Diplo 'Florida'
Birdy Nam Nam s/t

not recent
DJ Shadow 'Entroducing' (covers a lot of ground)
Kid Koala 'Some Of My Best Friends Are DJs' (or anything else...)
RJD2 'Deadringer'
X-Ecutioners 'Expressions'
Q-Bert 'Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze Musik'

I'm sure I could come up with more...there's already been some great responses. :)

Some bad boy beats here. Wouldn't have thought this many people are into this kind of stuff.

Other favs I've been feeling are Ohene, Kankick, Marc Mac (Visioneers) Ge-ology, Shin-Ski (of Shinsight Trio).

SAFE!

Wonder if anyone can point me in the right directions....

Some of my favorite tunes what I don't know who made em is..


Nas - Nas Is Like
Nas - Shootouts
Bustarhymes - any tune on Extinction Level Event
Ludacris - Any tune on Back For The First Time.
El-P - Any tune
Jehst - Liquid Diction
MadVillan - Meat Grinder
Pharoah Monch - Simon Says
Anything on Klashnekoffs first album (does he produce himself?)
Skinnyman - What's My Life Like?

Thanks in advance!

el-p produces all his own stuff. madvillain is either madlib or mf doom. pharoahe monch absolutely outdid himself with the simon says beat—self produced.

another one:

beneath autumn sky: enki's du mono is the one, but renewed is dope as well.
count bass- d's some music part 2 is nice as well.

J dilla WAS and IS the best producer when it comes to hip hop...ever
