I'm big on soundtracks, plus I'm a big Jazz Fusion fan.
Favorites include Bela Fleck, Spyro Gyra, Hiroshima, Kazumi Watanabe (maybe my favorite guitarist), and Mike Oldfield. Also new age artists, especially Vangelis and Kitaro. And although she does other stuff most of the time, I love the jazz instrumentals Yoko Kanno comes up with. Also have a number of Brubeck and Miles Davis albums, btw.
Life-long orchestral music fan. Especially Shostakovich, Dvorak, Grieg, Sibelius, Elgar, Barber and Vaughan Williams. When I'm feeling more modern, I go with something like Gorecki or one of the neo-romantics like Schikele, Edgar Meyer, or Mark O'Connor. I can listen to the older stuff all day, but I tend toward late 19th through 21st century.

Did you say SOUNDTRACKS?!! Man, where do I start....
Well, while I don't like all soundtracks (ones from 1940s-1970s usually), I do like ones that evoke me emotionally or inspire me with a story....
...Fav composers include James Newton Howard (Lady in the Water, The Village, King Kong, Blood Diamond, etc), John Powell (X-Men 3, Chicken Run, Paycheck, etc), and Don Davis (Matrix Trilogy, Behind Enemy Lines, etc)....
Again, I'll listen to just about any soundtrack, but it always depends on my mood....

Do I like instrumental music? Does the sun rise in the east? XD
I love classical, especially classical piano. I also love the work of John Williams and Howard Shore. I also like Yoko Kanno's work (especially the stuff from Cowboy Bebop). Lots of anime have really good background music too. Oh yeah, and don't forget video game music and remixes.

Love both instrumental & soundtracks. My dad's the soundtrack expert. John Williams, Danny Elfman, Randy Newman, Henry Mancini, etc. We even got this fantastic documentary of the History of Film Scores aired on AMC hosted by Randy Newman, (before he finally won that Oscar.)
Crocodile Dundee, Batman, Poirot, Miss Marple, Sherlock Holmes, um... we have a box of over 100 CD just of soundtrack & theater show tunes. May edit this post later as I remember some of them. Personally I also enjoyed Prince of Egypt's, (especially Steve Martin & Martin Shorts duet as the Egyptian priests.)
Anyhoo, if you're looking for instrumental Christian music, check out Word of Truth.
Also enjoy, the New Age, Yanni, classical, and the old big band sounds of the 30s & 40s.

What would the butterfly effects be with an OC with no chakra or ninja inclinations but a coveted special sensing ability? But that's not her only closely guarded secret. Psst, don't tell the hyper blond boy she hates ramen.

Uh, yeah. In fact, I strongly prefer instrumental music. If there must be singing, it's best if it's in a language I don't understand so I don't hear how lame the lyrics are.
I could list instrumental music I like all day. Some particular favorites:
Rock: Steve Morse; Birdsongs of the Mesozoic, Djam Karet; Ron Jarzombek; Joe Satriani; Danny Gatton; Gryphon; Happy the Man
Acoustic: Don Ross; Stephen Bennett; Dyle Dykes; John Renbourn; Pat Kirtley; Pete Huttlinger; No Strings Attached
Soundtracks: Haibane Renmei; Azumanga Daioh (and Yotsuba&! by the same musicians); Denno Coil
Plus lots of Celtic, Klezmer and eccentric stuff. And also Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Faure, Debussy, Stravinsky, Bartok, ...

I enjoy classical and Jazz, but not nearly as much as what I generally listen to {hence why I generally listen to it}.
because of that, I can't make too many awesome suggestions really, but here goes.
Leahy is amazing. Check them out for sure.
Jason Truby, x-living sacrifice guitarist, and x-POD guitarist, is now doing his own solo stuff, and it sounds just incredible. Here's a link; http://jasontruby.com/
Manudelago is kind of groovy, but I don't know if that falls under this category.. well, it is instrumental.. http://www.manudelago.com/eng/home.htm
and http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=17ojj7tgrqw
Enya is right out, but I can't help it, she's kind of cool.
Loreena McKennitt is really cool too. Her music always moved me.
hmm.. after this, I suppose everything else I know to suggest as alternatives to everything I listen to in the range of Prog Rock to Hardcore, falls under Techno or electronica.
But really, check out Truby. He's really quite good.

I could listen to the .Hack/Liminality soundtrack all day. Or the Madlax soundtrack. Good stuff.
I like Yuki best when she's doing vocal pieces, though. One of my favorite J-pop albums is Chiba Saeko's album "Everything", which is basically a Yuki Kajiura album (everything composed and produced by her) where Chiba-san sings all the vocals.

I don't have any particular artists or groups or w/e there is in instrumental music that I favor as of yet, but I do very much enjoy it. I get alot of instrumental stuff from ocremix.org, and then I've got a celtic cd and teh Flyleaf String Tribute cd, both of which I adore.
Of course, I enjoy pretty much any style of music, so yeah...
