If it has a sweet beat/bassline, all the better.

I am not looking for Tiesto-type cheesy trance ****. Ideally, the songs have slow pad synths. Think 80s, big hair, alcohol/cocaine binges and blurry lights in the Tokyo night.

Examples:

(I am intimately familiar with the rest of the Daft Punk catalog, but I am not looking for bleak house or vocoder stuff so don't recommend the rest of Discovery or Homework please).

Or the synth from Meet Me Halfway (just referring to slow synth, not the rest of it for the purposes of this request):

80s cheese feel is fine, but nothing that sounds too dated. Again, not looking for ****** Eurofaghouse stuff. THx.

Some spacey synth stuff I enjoy. They might be a little contemporary for your taste though. Side Kick - Deep Fear
