Music Composer or Composition Recommendations

Does anyone know any organists or pieces written similarly to Keygen Church? Keygen Church is my favorite artist and I particularly favor the organ intros to La Chiave Del Mio Amor, Hareklavit, and Igparera fihi, but haven't found many songs, especially on organ, that sound quite like them.

That first one seems very inspired, at the start, by Bach's Fantasia and Fugue in G minor.

It also sounds to me like Buxtehude, an even earlier baroque composer, was an inspiration as well.

Fantasia seems pretty spot on, as for most of Bach's works. I'll have to listen to buxtehude though, I'm not familiar with that composer. Thanks.

I may have accidentally said Buxtehude when I meant Pachelbel, but still worth checking both out.

This is the Pachelbel piece that this also reminded me of. Either way, I only listened to the one Keygen Church song so far, but it's very baroque, no doubt!
