What about psydub? I feel like it's extremely underrated, seeing as I had no knowledge of it's existence until I learned No Straight Roads existed.

never heard of psytrance either. Here's the fight ost from Eve's boss fight in NSR, (She represents psydub in general.)
I'll google psydub as well and give a definition, as well as a few artists

From Wikipedia: Psydub is a fusiongenre of electronic music that has its roots in psychedelic trance, ambient and dub music. Incorporated dub elements are melodic basslines, deep reggae roots and producing techniques like dynamically adding extensive echo, reverb, panoramic delay, and occasional dubbing of vocal or instrumental snippets from the original version or other works. An incorporated ambient element is an emphasis on tone and atmosphere. Incorporated psytrance elements are low-bass frequencies and hypnotic melodies and the use of samples. Those samples mostly contain references to drugs, parapsychology, extraterrestrial life, existentialism, out of body experiences, dreams, science, time travel, spirituality and similar mysterious or unconventional topics. Psydub is also highly influenced by Music of India. As for artists, Ephemeral Mists, Ott, Dub Trees, and Liquid Stranger, to name a few
