My favourites in that New Wave era (now obviously Oldwave) which had distinct synths - Talking Heads, Talk Talk, Gary Numan, Cabaret Voltaire, Human League and...the first album by Howard Jones - Human Lib around '83 which really got me kickstarted into electronic music at a tender young age. New Song really opened my ears to ambient-ish synth melodies.
