I'm liking most of the stuff people are posting but as for playing it at the store I have to discriminate between what I like and what I think would suit the place. Thank you all!

Can I suggest every single sung track in Transistor?
I'll also add the previously suggested songs from Bastion that are from the same artists as Transistor.
There's also this song from an indie game called The Cat Lady that I enjoy.
Also Telltale is really good at this, there's actually a pretty good version of the song In the Pines on the ending credits of Walking Dead Season 2 Episode 1 that's sung by a Telltale employee, I believe she's one of the artists but I'm not sure.
They also had a really good selection with the intros to Tales from the Borderlands I particularly like the second Episode intro song Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra's "Kiss the Sky" and I believe the fifth Episode?s intro which is James Blake's Retrograde though that's a bit more famous, they're all good and combined they do match what you are looking for, some slightly trippy tracks, some rock and some mellow tracks.
Metal Gear Solid 3's Snake Eater also sounds kinda normal if you ignore the silly lyrics so I'd add that.
For the moment I'll leave it at that but maybe later I can think of more, the old Tony Hawk games had killer soundtracks and there's tons of racing games with awesome music, not to mention that if you want to add metal there's always Br?tal Legend and so on, plus I also just read the OP and since you also accept instrumental songs and chiptune music I'll definitely have more suggestions.
Search stuff by Lindsey Stirling/Sterling (not sure how the surname is pronounced at this very moment...)
Put in a few of her songs on that list as well
While I've never actually gotten to play the game myself, I can almost always recommend the Neverhood soundtrack when someone is in need of video game music.
I was gonna say just throw the Bastion and Transistor soundtrack on loop and you'd be good to go, but someone else beat me to the recommendation.
Otherwise if you want some mellow background stuff, look up music by Chris Christodoulou. He did the soundtrack for Risk of Rain and Deadbolt and both are perfect background listening. Examples:
These two are definitely going in. I love Akira + Elizabeth McGlynn, I tend to remember the Shadows of the Damned OST as more metal. Is the other track from Anarchy Reigns?

I like it, didn't know about the guy. I've tried chiptune bands like Anamanaguchi and she and they're a bit too techno and rapid-fire for background music. But this cuts it perfectly.
