Bands like My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive is probably a good place to start.

If you're asking for my recommendations though, when I'm anxious this song is probably my favourite, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJ4Mn2X-Wm4

Put some good earphones on, turn it up, and just let your mind shut off as the fuzz and noise slowly builds. The part around ~3.45 is almost orgasmic to my ear, but I'm on the spectrum and I'm quite sensitive to audible sounds so perhaps others don't hear it quite like I do.



Not sure if I'm on the spectrum or not, but that was good, thank you for sharing it.

Seems like that particular YouTube link is unavailable (maybe just in the UK?), but I believe this is another copy of the same track, The Radio Dept. - The City Limit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNOjIJN5u7E


Lately when I'm anxious I find this one to be amazingly calming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnDcJMKCTLM

The combination of the music and the jellyfish floating by in that video.


I would add Mazzy Star, and a lot of Jangle pop to the list too. Thurston Moore's album The Best Day is another great recent addition to the jangle pop genre.
