I'm more likely to avoid certain musics according to my mood than to pick certain types. If I'm feeling down in the dumps, the last thing I'm going to listen to is doomy depressing alt-country or black metal. I'm far more likely to be able to appreciate that sort of stuff when I'm in a good mood.
The only exception to this rule is classical-style post-rock, which can always put me in a good mood with its beauty, no matter how melancholy it may sound.
