Yoko Kanno is a musical goddess. I'm slowly making my way through every anime she's done the music for just to bask in her good taste.

Cowboy Bebop is undisputed champion here.

NY rush, op/ed pieces, almost every episode has a new unique song in it.

Akagi opening song is awesome moody blues too

Holy cow, my favorite actress, Kana is in here. Good thing I don't know which character she voiced, I love figuring it out as I watch.

I loved guilty crown ED song too, especially when she sang it around episode 4. Noragami was great as well

Thank you everyone, I got a lot of animes to watch now

I will also add a Honey & Clover here. The soundtrack is amazing (not focused on music tho but on art)

Bartender has a lovely jazz soundtrack by pianist and composer Ootake Kaoruku. You can see her with her then-partner (as the duo "Natural High") in the mirror during the ED. Like the show it's pretty sentimental, but I think it blends well with the content. You can imagine Ootake noodling on the piano in a corner of Bar Eden Hall. One of my favorite transitions occurs about 2/3 of the way through episode two, when Ryuu figures out the liquor Miwa is asking about. The music changes key and character as he decides.

I've also taken a liking to the soundtrack for Shirobako. It's pretty varied and also well-suited to the material. I especially like the upbeat tracks that play when tense events occur.

definitely seconding shigatsu wa kimi no uso!! great soundtrack by Masaru Yokoyama (quick examples of this great sountrack are:
-Yuujin A-kun wo Watashi no Bansousha ni Ninmeishimasu
-My truth - Rondo Capriccioso)

also psycho pass - soundtrack by kanno yugo (quick examples:
-Inochi no Arikata
-psycho-pass theme)
i study this so the first things i focus automatically on every anime is how the soundtrack blends with the animation/scenes

Infinite Ryvius has some of the most unfitting and awkwardly employed soundtrack I've ever heard.

Not what OP is looking for, but interesting perhaps.

Strike Witches Movie

Dragon Crisis!

^ Those two are the best I've seen regarding music that perfectly blends to the atmosphere of each scene.

I especially love the music in Madoka Magica. The eerie music, in particular, fits the mood of the anime very well. And Madoka Magica, as a whole, is a masterpiece. Not because it's a magical girl anime, but because of how contradictory it is as a magical girl anime (the extremely dark twists and all).

1. Fate/Zero
2. Gintama
3. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
4. Shinsekai Yori
5. Hunter x Hunter (2011)
