Nice, I can imagine it already.

"the hidden camera" (I *think*, I can never remember exactly which track it
is) by Photek. It's the midtempo (130BPM?) cut on "the hidden camera EP"
(Science/Astralwerks)
"sunday shining (Gerald's Sony Walkman mix)" by Finley Quaye, remix by A Guy
Called Gerald. More midtempo breaks, with a great aquatic effect on Finley
Quaye's voice. I found my copy for $1, which made it all the sweeter.
"bug in the bassbin", "manufactured memories", "at les" (all by Innerzone
Orchestra).
I don't remember the track name, but there's a great jazzy breaks track on the
4th "From Beyond" record, on Interdimensional Transmissions, by Shake (Anthony
Shakir).
I've also been mixing some of the Timbaland-esque hip-hop into more minimal
stuff. A few of those favorites:
Timbaland & Magoo - "Up jumps da boogie" (classic!)
Outkast - "Spottieottiedopilicious". From their last album "Aquemini", sounds
great when you play the instrumental slowed down (to around 65BPM, probably)
and mix it with bumping minimal techno ("No Stunts" by Pelon on Chain Reaction
is a favorite). The horns in "Spottie..." are the absolute shit, they sound
like what a marching band would be if it were funky as hell.
Anyway, hope this provides some inspiration.
Cheers,
Bill / dj marathon
