JDilla
Souls of Mischief
DJ Shadow
DJ Format
Lefties Soul Connection

There is so much to choose from. What about the so called Post-Rock albums? The band For A Minor Reflection comes to mind.

Animals As Leaders I would certainly add to my favourite instrumental albums.

Forgot about AaL. First album was fantastic. Second album was considerably more boring, too homogeneous across the album, and less original overall, IMO.

It's silly to claim these to be the best instrumental works of the last 10 years, obviously due to ignorance of the unknown but these are among the ones I most highly regard.

Evan Parker's Electro-Acoustic Ensemble - The Moment's Energy (Electroacustical)


Quatuor Ebène - Quatuor Ébène Performs Ravel, Debussy & Fauré (Classical)
(apologise for crappy quality link)

Svarte Greiner - Penpals Forever (And Ever) (Electroacustical)

There are very few instrumentals in my library. Most are OST's. The Assassination of Jesse James score is so haunting and evocative. It ranks among my all time favourite soundtracks.
