Based on the hype song thread recently posted here.
Particular to me:
Rakim: The saga begins (Instrumental): Maybe it's just me but this instrumental has always given a very sad, 'navigating a crisis' vibe, which I find really compelling now.
Vaporwave rickroll: A Mashup of the vaporwave song and never gonna give you up; which thanks to this random video I now associate with broken expectations and melancholy.
Twisted by Kevin Macleod: The march in the song kinda feels like marching into the unknown, regardless if what you find.
Less specific to me however:
Eminem: It's OK (instrumental): kind of the same thing as the saga begins, except the full song is kinda like that too.
Jazz liberatorz -Speak the language
MF - Doom: Great day: 2 songs that give me a somewhat chill/day-to-day vibe most lo-fi songs aim to capture.
Gran Turismo 4 OST: An old Bassman...: This either is or should be the anthem of existential dread.
Diário de um detento (instrumental): This is less a song that feels like navigating a crisis but just kinda living through it without much thought other than a mild irritation.
NIN: Downward spiral: Very aptly named.
respite. - blackdeku: The word 'resignation' comes to mind.
