Will post more recommendations when I get home, but here's two names to get you started: Jô Hisaishi and Ryuichi Sakamoto. Both brilliant composers. A good start for getting to know Hisaishi is getting a hold of the Hisaishi Vs. Kitano Films album, which features excellent compositions from various Kitano movies (including music from the amazing scores to Hana-Bi and Kikujiro). As for Sakamoto, anything is great, although a personal favorite of mine would be his Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence.
