Gravediggaz & Sunz of Man's first two albums.

El-P's beats are dark. Anyone see the movie Blade Runner? El-P did an interview where he talks about being inspired from that that movie, it shows in his music. Love it.

That reminds me, i've always wanted to pickup the Blade Runner soundtrack, the music during the credits is very El-P.
