Synth Music

Vangelis and Jean-Michel Jarre are the first names that come to mind. Look up the theme from Blade Runner, 'Pulstar' and the entire Oxygene collection. Later on, you have the likes of Jan Hammer. 'Crockett's Theme' is one of the best things ever.

 

Jan Hammer was absolutely ripping it up on the synth as early as 1973 with his playing on Birds of Fire by the Mahavishnu Orchestra.

 

He's a very underrated musician.

Absolutely nailed the "jacket sleeves rolled up and keytar" look on TotP as well.
