Great memories. "Keygen music" feels like a genre of electronic music... Are there people making electronic music that sounds like Keygen music but with modern instruments?

Same guy is behind these both.
Also, DRM-free music and streaming for KEYGEN CHURCH on Bandcamp:
<https://4mat.bandcamp.com/album/modern-closure> came out in 2019 and is one of my favorite albums of all time, but I'm not sure that it fits all of the elements of "keygen music" which are hard to pin down.
Not all their stuff sounds like that, but I've been a big fan since first discovering them via a sample included in the XMMS2 media player way back in the early 2000's.
PS: Not to be confused with British mods. ;)
