Rec me some anime soundtracks with nice melodies to them. Either something that sounds really nice or something you'll instantly recognize. No vocals (a tiny bit is fine, as long as it isn't the main focus) and no forgettable elevator music tier shit please. Give me some youtube links to specific tracks. Any genre is fine. Examples

SnW's OST is overall wonderful. Cowboy Bebop, Redline and Kara no Kyoukai have soundtracks with some great songs as well.

These all sound nice, but I can't say I like them enough to add them to my list. Closest was nc17, although I felt like it was missing something. Seems like we just have different tastes.

Entire purpose of this thread is so that I don't have to go through whole albums to find the good stuff

Done. You won't know whether you'll like it unless you hear it yourself. All I can do is point you toward good albums to increases your chances.

Overall good tracks, though nothing that I wanted to add. Maybe I'll listen to it again later and see if I change my mind.
I checked the composer and it seems like he did the music for Free and Mirai Nikki which had a few tracks that I liked.
Also looks like he's doing a show this season. Guess I'll pick that up and check out the music.

This isn't technically from an anime (it's from a dead game) this sounds nice.

This is what I mean by elevator music. Generic piano tune with boring melody that sounds one dimensional. You can literally tell the composer had a deadline and just shat this one out. Just look at the difference between that and this.

You realize a huge number of tracks from C and Gatchaman and GitS also contain vocals, right? And that Mikoto's theme practically qualifies as elevator music in and of itself?

The "Shiki" soundtrack is pretty beautiful.
