RIP Harold Budd
Harold Budd was one of the originators of ambient music. His signature treated piano sound is a beautiful and haunting sound.

Paradise Lost
Paradise Lost built a good following on their first couple dark metal albums, then turned more polished hard rock, then turned electronic rock, then started going backwards toward doom metal. Personally, I would start with "One Second" - fantastically produced by Sank, with deep baritone vocals. Goth hard rock never got any better.

John Foxx
John Foxx started out fronting Ultravox, but left after 3 albums. His early solo work was very synth-heavy, working beneath a layer of cold waves, not unlike Gary Numan. He turned to ambient music through the '90s, returning to more pop oriented material with The Maths in 2011.
