You really think that autoditaker "covers more sound"? Are you sure that you
are not only saying this because autoditaker is more percussion and less
melody? If you listen closely you'll find that Iaora Tahiti covers quite a
bit
of creative sound tweaking, and it's used quite well. I believe that both
CD's
are great works, but they are very different. Autoditaker is more about
percussion, Iaora Tahiti is a totally about melody. Mabey you like
Autoditaker
more because you have a preference to percussion/electronic tweaks and clicks
over melody?

I understand your point.  However, I feel that the textures of the sounds on
Iaora Tahiti are rougher and less defined (not to be assumed as a negative
quality though).  The sounds seem to be more subtle and less overpowering on
Autoditacker ...  But it's quite possible that it's due to more tweaking and
more emphasis on quirky percussion.  I just never thought of it that way.  

I enjoy both releases with their unique melodic grooves, but Autoditacker
would be my desert island disc.
