Reader Thoracius Appotite has created a patch library for the Korg MicroKorg that features 80+ sounds, inspired by vintage synthesizers. 

Korg MicroKorg Patch Library Description:

In this pack of original patches, I’ve emulated famous vintage analog synths (Minimoog, Moog Modular, Juno, Jupiter), retro digital synths (DX7, D50, SQ80, Casiotone), vintage keyboards (Mellotron, Farfisa, Clavioline, Wurlitzer, analog piano, Eminent string machine, Hammond organ), and acoustic sounds (toy piano, marimba, church bell, male voice).

For some of the synthesizer sounds I’ve drawn inspiration from artists such as John Carpenter, Tame Impala, Giorgio Moroder, Edgar Froese, Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, Isao Tomita, Survive (Stranger Things OST), Angelo Badalamenti (Twin Peaks OST), Air, The Cars, Clio, and styles ranging from electronic avant garde, kraut rock, new wave, horror/soundtrack, electro pop, space disco, garage rock, psychedelic pop, and dream pop.

There are leads, pads, basses, drums, all sorts of sounds.
