The truth is simply that you will mostly find remixes of popular tunes from the 80s and 90s here because that's when the golden era of MOD and related formats was, so people were most active back then and obviously remixed music from back then. No Lada Gaga there, but Madonna instead. Also, you generally will find less "8-bit" music here since MOD is relict of the 16-bit (Amiga / PC) era. People using samples from NES and other 8-bit machines in MODs is a relatively new (as in, occured in the last few years) phenomenon. Before that, MOD chiptunes often sounded distinctively different from true 8-bit chiptunes.
