I'm a fan of Proyas first film, the uneven and weirdly chaotic Spirits of the Air, Gremlins of the Clouds - the soundtrack (soundscape?) for which is sublime.
Speaking of music, Tabaran is a lesser known gem from that era (it's both an album and an eponymous track): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdvNFKL8h2U
Instrument wise I don't mind banjo+didgeridoo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr3iI8gg2fo
the Kora: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSD_amb-l9Q
and the occassional bit of upside down back to front guitar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyppTLuJm14
