Help me find more songs like Soul Searchers' "Ashley's Roachclip"

This is one of the songs that appears on the radio in GTA V. It's amazing and I want more. What are other soul tracks in the same vein?
This is what I love. That feel, that beat, the flute.
I want piles and piles of this.

Well, "Ashley's Roach Clip" is a standard break beat, so you might check out breakbeat compilations like Ultimate Breaks and Beats.

Are we just posting our favorite breaks? Because awwww shit.

Besides Ultimate Breaks and Beats, there are also other breaks series including Dusty Fingers, Strictly Breaks, Schoolyard Breaks, etc., and a bunch of artist-specific breaks comps (e.g. Tribe Vibes), and a bunch of breaks-focused DJ mixes (e.g. 52 Beats by Kid Capri (and revisited by Roc Raida), Ron G's Beat Kingdom, Q-Bert's Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze, etc.)

And, just to bring things back to GTA, you might also enjoy the Mastersounds station in GTA: San Andreas. And, just to bring things back to the flute, here's a little Bobbi Humphrey 'Harlem River Drive'.
