I love this kind of music, i looked up "Electronic music' but that only got me techno type beats or dubstep.

What Genre is this music you hear in Blade Runner 2049 and some other Sci Fi movies like Oblivion, Tron, etc?

thanks

You'll find similar music at Soma FM on the Drone Zone and Doomed streams.

It is mostly a dark, melodic combination of classical composition and synthesizers which mirrors the futuristic film noir. At least for the original. The new one tries to mirror that type.

Genre: electronic, ambient, new age

Good article on how the original BR score by Vangelis influenced electronic music years later. Includes a video.
