Use lighter tones, such as white, off white, light tan, etc., this way the artificial lighting will help give the appearance of more light.

The basement should be painted a sunny yellow or light green to give the impression that there is a lot of light in the space.

I would paint it a neutral color such as light tan, light grey or any other light color. I would avoid painting with dark colors as this would create an even darker basement. Painting floor a light grey and accenting with another neutral color would create some ight as well.

For a dark basement that doesn't have much light, I would definitely paint the walls a light but cheerful color.
