Teen Gothic

So I'm interested in making a darkwave solo project, and I would like to incorporate a lot of synth into it since that's such a big aspect of the genre, however I don't know very much about synths so I was wondering if anyone had some basic recommendations/guidelines as for what type of synth works best for this genre, be that software recs or suggestions for a specific model of analog or whatever.

Also if this isn't the right space to ask about this and anyone has a different sub they'd like to direct me towards feel free.
