You should check out everything they've done, because it's all more or
less excellent.

Try:

Mouse On Mars - "Vulvaland" (first release on Too Pure)
Mouse On Mars - "Iaora Tahiti" (which I personally thought was
*slightly* better than Autoditacker)
Mouse On Mars - "Cache Coeur Naif EP" (featuring vocals by that girl
from Stereolab)
Mouse On Mars - "Instrumentals" (limited LP and the very first release
on their own Sonig label)
Microstoria - "Init Ding" (collaboration on Mille Plateaux between
MOMs Jan St. Werner and Oval's Markus Popp - incredibly brilliant
stuff)
Microstoria - "_snd" (second release; also on Mille Plateaux)

Jan St. Werner also did a collaborative LP/CD with FX Randomiz called
"Slow", but it was released a long time ago and is close to impossible
to get hold of today (although A-musik (record shop/label in Cologne)
apparently did a repress of about 500 (or 1000) copies).

If you like MOM you should also check out FX Randomix' recent release
on the A-musik label (go to the M.DOS record shop (run by the digital
terrorists from Mego) at  http://www.Austria.EU.net/frank/mego/   to
hear a track from the album).

Don't mention it.
