Synth music style invented around 30 years ago on technology that didn’t exist a generation ago: "This sounds old-fashioned, the developers need to evolve."
Orchestral music played on instruments that have existed for thousands of years, in a style that’s existed for hundreds: “Finally, a modern sounding ost!” 
How many decades does a trend get to stick around before it stops being called a trend?
I mean twenty years ago, the synth music they’re talking about was modern. Look at the Matrix, or games like Deus Ex. Their soundtracks are full of that shit.
It was good and I wish it continued to develop and expand more in contemporary culture.
Especially Deus Ex. Had banger after banger.
