slow, funky, groovin' laid back music

Looking for something instrumental to put on late night, quiet with deep bass and soul. Not easy or "smooth" jazz, but more hip hop influenced. I like theivery corporation, but would like to hear more afro/jazz influence. Does that make any sense? Something like People Under the Stairs or Digable Planets or Erykah Badu or Jill Scott, but without the words. Recommendations welcome. Thanks

Memberman, I know the suggestions were not aimed at me, but thanks.

I went to AMG, listened to a few cuts from Nightmares on Wax and Ratatat and am ordering the LP's.

I've looked up all these suggestions and will begin shopping for some titles.

I'm especially impressed with:
Freddie Hubbard "Red Clay"
Ratatat "LP3"
Zero 7, "When It Falls"
Zero 7, "Simple Things"
The K&D Sessions.

This makes me want to ask, do any of you like:
Goldfrapp, "Felt Mountain"
Porcupine Tree, "Fear of a Blank Planet"

How about the stripped down electronic portraits by Jan Jelinek? My favorite Jelinek is: "Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records" on Scape.
