Although i'm a big fan of 2pac, i totally love the soundtrack for the epioc movie The Last Samurai, directed by Edward Zwick in 2003. The music is composed by Hans Zimmer, and i must say it beats Lotr all the way in some parts. The peace of the sing, with the japanese themes is enough to bring you to another world. Here are some search keywords for you:

Hans Zimmer: A Hard Teacher
A Small Measure Of Peace
The Way Of The Sword
Idyll's End

Just some samples, download them!
