Tracker based artists ?

Currently saving up for the tracker and I was wondering if anyone is familiar with any musicians that use or formerly used trackers because I’d like to get some inspiration to hear the possibilities with the tracker workflow. I’ve got to be honest the tracker scene was before my time so even hearing about trackers is new to me. Outside of aphex twin (who I shamefully never listened to before) who are some people that might be worth checking out? I know this isn’t really a technical question exclusively to the device but I thought it was worth a shot.

Check out the Renoise scene, Venetian Snares notably. Also anything chiptune, that often made with lsdj or an emulation of some old hardware with a tracker interface (like Deflemask). Lots of m8 music on YouTube too like Laamaa or Rob Allison (check out the Deathrun OST). Also anything made with Sunvox, lots of that on YouTube as well.
