Looking for some stuff for late night drives similar to things like this...
DJ Shadow - Midnight in a Perfect World
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InFbBlpD ... BF6158BA91
DJ Shadow - Building Steam with a Grain of Salt
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcxsheRO ... BF6158BA91
DJ Krush - Dig this Vibe
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SCFWNrTxxE
Teebs - Cook, Clean, Pay the Rent
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDONcANQFYA
Bugz In The Attic - Blue Note Revisited "Los Alamitos Latinfunkloveson...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1rQSrTGSPA
This one is particularly fucking bad ass!!
DJ Spooky - Synchronic Disjecta
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qNjsdqZsC8
Innervisions - Mermaids
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJ1dqkQLJZ0
The more old school sounding, scratchy, jazzier, vibey-er, and more atmospheric with heavy hip hop beats and funky ass bass lines the better!!!
Thank you in advance,

I don't know if J Dilla fits that criteria, but a lot of people swear by him

You can't go wrong with Nightmares on Wax:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6jiDSCx ... ata_playerThis album reminds me of a roof-top pool in a hotel in Rome. Chilled Peroni in-hand.... Bliss.

Definitely need to listen to more Dilla (Donuts is on my to-get list).
Some of Flying Lotus's stuff may be a good shout; this track, for example, which is a tribute to Dilla...

I'd say definitely got that nocturnal, chilled tone nailed. Cool Stereolab sample, too.

Dilla's Donuts is an absolute classic - it just flows so well

Pay-what-you-want split release (Noah and SELA.) released by Flau Records -- I can confirm that it's worth a listen. Ambient sort of instrumental beats (I say instrumental, there are wordless vocals here and there) that I highly recommend.

Man, this is all great stuff! Really digging that Visioneers track.
I stumbled upon this album while digging around. Some good stuff on there.

Company Flow's album "Little Johnny from the Hospitul" breaks and instrumentals vol. 1 is a brilliant album. Go find it now! It's really quite amazing.

More hip-hop
influenced, but fits the other criteria, I'd say.
