Boards of Canada for some lofi nostalgia

Streets of Rage soundtrack, Sonic 1-3, donkey Kong country aquatic something is a killer

Commix - call to mind is some classic dnb, some lyrics but often looped and mixed to be more of just another instrument

Sasha - airdrawndagger, more ambient slower melodies

Tycho - dive

Anything by Philip Glass or John Williams

Cloudkicker - Beacons, progressive metal band instrumentation kinda like animals as leaders

2010 Toyota Corolla - 2003 Toyota Corolla is the new national anthem

Bohren & der club of gore for some slow noir jazz
