"Data Kiss" is from Com Truise's (a play on Tom Cruise) 2012 album, In Decay. It certainly is evocative of the 80s. Synthwave is electronic music inspired by the 80s (80s music culture, fashion, film...). The person who added the film footage to the music chose scenes from the 1981 sci-fi film The Looker. I discovered this track (part of it anyway) due to a film trailer for High-Rise from 2015 (I love this film -- a lot don't). An official trailer featured it despite not being music used in the film. High-Rise is a very retro styled film, so interesting to use the retro stylings of Com Truise for the trailer. The High-Rise soundtrack does feature Can with "Outside My Door" from the Monster Movie soundtrack.

On to something different:

Julia Holter - "Lucette Stranded on the Island" from her 2015 album Have You in My Wilderness

I love this one so much:

As for The Bears, I automatically thought Robert Fripp because he often adds to music projects and well, guitar is prominent, and I think he is the biggest name in prog. Seeing people sit down with guitars as in the image makes me think Fripp. I enjoyed the music. Since Ozgur's post made me think about synthwave and the like, here is a favourite of mine:

^Seems we have a different definition of "pure awesomeness".

The Bears - Dave. A well know prog legend appears on this song. Without looking it up, do you know who it is?

One of my favorite lessor known power pop bands that never received the acclaim they deserved..imho.

^So beautiful

^ Very glad to hear you like it, Mira. :) I'm glad it came to mind. It had been a long while and was a very satisfying re-discovery for me.

Jellyfish. There is a well know musician playing on this song. Bonus points if you know who it is and what instrument they play, without consulting the internet.
