I am looking for a keyboard for allround use and was wondering if there is any that can be used with a xxl mouse pad without sliding forward, i mean a mouse pad (cloth) isn't exactly optimal with a keyboard if you use the feet to make it higher, it almost slides forward by looking at it ;-)

Cheap, backlight,silent,cable, dedicated media keys less then 80$/70€

The issue with most keyboards is the lack of surface area with the feet under it.
Using the back feet extended will limit what is in the back to hold it in one place, but look for something with larger rubber pads on the front edge.

For instance the Cherry MX-Board 3.0 has large rubber feet you apply under the keyboard to help keep it in place.
