pic very unre-fuckin'-lated
So I'm about to start a near future campaign involving a ton of different gangs and faction each with different themes and whatnot. I want to have at least a couple fighting songs for each faction, so naturally I need good fighting music from as many different genres as possible. I'll post what I have in a second, but anything you guys got would be great.

literally anything else would be appreciated. I think I could use a hiphop fight track in there. personally I'd like to keep them instrumental but that's not a hard rule, anything goes here folks.
Most action and vidya soundtracks work great, but I would avoid stuff that's too recognisable because players will instantly associate it with its original source instead of your campaign. It would help if you told us what general theme your campaign has. Is it fantasy, sci-fi, post-apo, something else; is it more dark or light themed etc.

It's a homebrew setting, but I drew a lot of inspiration from Bladerunner, Cowboy Bebop, and classic western movies/movies with western themes like The good the bad and the ugly, seven samurai et cetera. it will have a lot of cyberpunk type shit in there but I don't want lazerhawk and whatnot to be the general tone, Ideally I'd like to be able to shift the general tone of the campaign based on the scene thats playing out. for that, I'll need a somewhat decent library.
I'll be doing another thread later about downtime music, the type of shit you play when not murdering.
anyways, heres another just generally good fight song I got

Whenever I run a scifi campaign, I always make sure to throw some Hybrid in there, and they have enough range that you can probably use a lot of them:

Lesser known Morricone themes can add some decent tension:

Some misc stuff that I use for the general stuff you're going for:

Well, from the top of my head:
Unreal series have a lot of great sci-fi soundtrack, here is a sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-D0YIAenLdk

For ambience I really like to use the soundtacck from original fallouts. It works great for abandoned industrial buildings and places like that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGyB093QOIo
For more fantasy themed stuff, souls series has great tracks for big and epic battles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffLbdhP0auc
Shadow of the Colossus has some amazing tracks for both action and exploration but they don't go well with everything:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmoYLtObCtY
As for other stuff that comes to my mind Witcher series have great soundtracks but as you posted Percival you probably already know that. Elder scrolls have good tracks for general fantasy but your players will probably recognise them. You can however try Elder Scrolls Online soundtrack. It has some very good tracks and is not that well known: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCGiWssgCqk

Ennio never fails to impress me
also wasn't expecting to use a death grips instrumental in my campaign but I'm going to now.

I'm guilty of this. I tend to take tracks from the SNES, GB(A), and 64 era. Well known stuff too. Probably a good thing that whenever I'm DMing the campaign is never too serious.
A sample of the shit I use.

Fighting vidya has some of the best fighting soundtracks (unsurprisingly).
As >>46367608 says, you should avoid the popular ones, but there's such a wide selection that unless your players are fighting game buffs, you should be fine.
I'd recommend the entire Killer Instinct (the new one) soundtrack by Mick Gordon. It's fucking genius.
Here are a few:
