+1 for milkytracker.

I'm too young to have experienced the MOD scene firsthand, but I discovered it while investigating the demoscene. Some of the music I found was just spectacular, both because of the technical limitations of the time AND because it was really good per se.

Also, you can fit a huge library (tens of thousands of songs) in a gigabyte. Awesome.

I spent hours upon hours of watching trackers play music. I was lucky to discover 600+ MOD and XM files on one of those 'freeware game' CD roms. It was used as 'menu music' for the game browser. The true gold was the music, not the freeware!
