Dan the Automator (aka Dan Nakamura) has been producing really good music for a really long time. He has a recognizable style as a producer and draws from an encyclopedic knowledge and collection of obscure records to make some of the coolest music I've ever heard. And everyone loves him so he's worked with like... everybody.
Here's a chronological sampling of some of the stuff he's worked on.

"Blue Flowers" - Dr. Octagon, Dr. Octagonecologyst (1996)

"Fists of Curry" - Dan (solo), Bombay the Hard Way: Guns, Cars and Sitars (1998)

"Rock n' Roll (Could Never Hip Hop Like This)" - Handsome Boy Modeling School - So... How's Your Girl (1999)

"3030" - Deltron 3030, Deltron 3030 (2000)

"Rock the House" - Gorillaz, Gorillaz (2001)

"Sex (I'm A)" - Lovage, Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By (2001)

"The Return" - Deltron 3030, Event 2 (2013)

"Karma Sutra" - Dr. Octago, Moosebumps: An Exploration Into Modern Day Horripilation (2018)

There's tons more he's done and also I'd love to get into the larger Del/Hieroglyphics discography even though he didn't work on most of that so it could be a separate thread but I think stylistically a lot of Del's solo stuff comes from the same sensibilities that Dan has which is why they mesh so goddamned well.

Post some tracks I guess.
