I recently bought the soundtracks for "2001: A Space Odyssey", "Tron" and "A Clockwork Orange" on CD and have been listening to them over the past few days. I will have to say that Wendy Carlos is a very underrated composer. While she is well known within sci-fi geek circles, she is not really known at all by the mainstream.

Only last night I listened to the Blade Runner soundtrack.
I've only just started listening to Vangelis. Mythodea blew my mind.
This live version is awesome. I also enjoyed the OST for 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' recently. Not forgetting 'Moonrise Kingdom' which was an interesting album that I play frequently.

I have the 3 CD Blade Runner set and it's absolutely great. I really think BR is the best score ever by Vangelis.
