Have a listen to Endtroducing or Ghostwriter for subtle, witty, emotional music made entirely from samples.
EDIT:
Or Coldcut
Or Portishead's first two records for the Burroughs effect. They recorded themselves to vinyl, then Geoff Barrow used the records for scratching and sampling. EXPLAIN THAT, FREEFAIR!
Or Attica Blues
Or vintage hip hop like Public Enemy, NWA, JVC F.O.R.C.E. or DJ Premier's stuff.

Anywayz, I agree with you.

Vulgar music for spastics. Go and have a listen to DJ Shadow's Building Steam With a Grain of Salt.
That's not to say I wouldn't want to do very bad things to and with Rihanna. Of course I would. But her music is shite.
Go on FreeFair, one knows one wants to.

I remember a review at the time described it as 'both slyly knowing and brilliantly naive'.
Sums it up really. The only two non-sampled-from-a-record bits on it (apart from the scratching obv) is the vocal line on Mutual Slump and the vocal at the beginning of Midnight in a Perfect World.
Have you heard RJD2's first album Ghostwriter? It came out on Def Jux about 2002. Very very good- similar thing to Endtroducing but with rappers on a few of the tracks.

I'll keep an ear out. I'm sure a couple of my mates have it.
I've been listening to some Future Sound of London recently, and another thing they did called Amorphous Androgynous, which is a compilation of psychadelic stuff. Very enjoyable.

Papua New Guinea hasn't aged well.
Here's some RJD2 www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPuv6QE28yc
And I was incorrect, the album is called Deadringer. Ghostwriter is a track on it.

I am an avid fan of instrumental hip hop. I collect vintage Mo Wax vinyl when I have the cash to buy wax.
