My first Spotify playlist

I recently joined Spotify, which is a great music-in-the-cloud subscription service and one of the features is the possibility of creating playlists and sharing them with others. I thought I'd share my first 'best of/favorites' of Instrumental (mostly modern) music with my readers (truly this is very incomplete!).

It's organized in the order that I remembered the tracks(or accidentally discovered new ones while searching for other pieces), which is to say that there is very little logic to how it's laid out.

That said, if you find something you like, I encourage you to add it to your playlist/buy it from your favorite music distributor. Unfortunately, not every song I put in my playlist is available on Spotify, so I've included the full list here as well. I may also add additional titles later when I locate/remember them. :)

Have any good pieces you'd like to share? Let me know in the comments or on Facebook!
