I'm a flute and piano player so I hear a lot of classical music that is good. Especially the modern classical. And then I have to say that I like "Cliffs of Dover" by Eric Johnson a lot (yay Guitar Hero!)

Air (for the most part, instrumental)

I am the God of Freedom. I am not revered, I have no shrines; and you have never before heard of me nor will you ever hear of me again.

Bach and Beethoven for Classical/Baroque music
YUI is my favorite guitarist

The Old Boy OST is nice. Never watched the movie. But the soundtrack, it's nice.

Not the greatest.... but the climax to this is one of the best.

Most songs by Mogwai pretty well done.

(the video is a bit weird, though)

get the "Happy Songs For Happy People" album first, it's really easy to get into

edit: Well done live performance of that album's first song: http://youtube.com/watch?v=UlbDUde6X3o

uummm...i'm a classical musician too, and just recentyl started listening to stuff that's not classical. i really like the bond girls(quartet), vanessa mae and Escala. bond duel is my fav. 😀 vanessa mae's remix of tartini's devil's trill is also awesome. 😀

Yann Tiersen and Jon Brion are great! Compositions by Ennio Moricone are okay,too.

Since there are no vocals in most experimental music I consider them experimental too(?). I'm recommending Aphex Twin, Amon Tobin, Squarepusher and Venetian Snares.

I also like the tracks they used for the movie "28 days later"

To see everything from the perspective of eternity

some of the most notable OSTs from anime series i remember are Da Capo, Maria-sama ga Miteru, Kannazuki no Miko. from video games i like Final Fantasy OSTs

Fansubs and Scanslations are the best! But when official releases come out, support the anime industry by purchasing your favorite series! (Geneon -R.I.P, Central Media Park - get well soon, ADV Manga - you're back from the dead?!)

OST music is a bit different from what I think of as 'Good Instrumental Music' sure, it's instrumental, and sure, it's good, but the aim of the artist and the composer was to provide a backdrop for the action taking place on screen. Different from music made to stand alone.
