Synth soundtrack recommendations needed

[mech1]

i'm gonna put together a little ole compilation for myself but the theme will be tv and/or movie soundtrack music with a heavy synthesizer/electronic theme, preferably old school stuff from the 70's and 80's. some of the stuff I have in my collection but others I may have to find as downloads on the net.

so far i've got:

John Carpenter-Assault On Precinct 13, Escape From NY, etc
Knight Rider Theme
Airwolf Theme
Equalizer Theme (I think this is electronic)
Blue Thunder Theme
Wargames ost

I know there's loads more but i'm drawing a blank at the moment. Isn't some of the Barry de Vorzon stuff on the Warriors ost electronic?

anyway, any and all recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I know it's probably an obvious reccomendation, but how about Keith Emerson's excellent 1981 'NightHawks' OST - sythny, funky and proggy all at the same time!

Michael Polnareff - Lipstick
Ryuichi Sakamoto - Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence
Pool-Pah - The Flasher (for Sour Soul)
Andre Previn - Rollerball (for Executive Dance Party)
Harold Faltermeyer - Beverly Hills Cop (for Axel F)
Trevor Jones - Mississippi Burning

Bladerunner. End of.

Clockwork Orange (well, it worked for Cage on 'Agent Orange&#39.

The Warriors has some nice bits, good vocal samples too.

Don't forget Shogun Assassin - synth-gore!

[pokester]

very common but Giorgio Moroder's midnight is still a good track

[Palmer_Eldrich]

Artimiev's Solaris OST very strange but I like it...

[Dr Rubberfunk]

It's all about The Rockford Files ...

[Belson]

Anyone for either version of Quiller?

rollerball has some nice synth bits if i remember correctly!

'Inseminoid' by John Scott
'The Achievements Of Man' - Francis Monkman (on a Bruton, the theme from 'Think Again', with Johnny Ball&#33
The music from the 'Play Safe' public information films (scary&#33

Oh shit yeah, don't forget the Moroder's score to Scarface, though only Tony's Theme made it to the OST though... crying shame... I like the Anderson Tapes too, by Quincy Jones

thanks for the suggestions everyone, list compiled and search begun. I've got some of the other odd bits and pieces mentioned like Scarface, some Moroder, Rollerball, etc. A lot of these sound pretty obscure but interesting nonetheless.
