Like @koenvdb says, there is no "magic playlist". What works for you will probably be different from everyone else. But FWIW, you can do worse than including this track: link ("Chase" by Giorgio Moroder) Outside of that, you might try something like: link (horrorsynth) link (synthwave) link (synthwave) link (Rachmaninoff) link (Camille Saint-Saëns - Danse Macabre) link (Bach - Brandenburg Concertos) link (Holst - The Planets) link (Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion) link (blues) link ("Epic battle music") ▶ this video (David Hasselhoff - True Survivor) link (Amon Amarth - Put Your Back Into The Oar) link (AC/DC - Greatest Hits) link (Motley Crue - Keep Your Eye on the Money) link (Winger - Madalaine) link (John Farnham - Thunder in your Heart) link ("Twin Peaks Double R Diner Ambience - 8 Hours of Smooth Jazz Music, Rain Sounds, & Cozy Cafe Ambience")
I recently encountered the term 'Tempoflavanoids' - the flavour of a particular moment in time. I love the concept, it speaks to the artist in me. Though I thought David Hasslehoff's 'True Survivor' music video for the Kung Fury kickstarter was a banger. ▶ this video
The 90s have called... They want their Cyberpunk 2020 font back into something more legible. I suggest he hires Hasselhoff for the promotion ▶ this video
