All this talk about MoM has lead me to jump into the conversation here . . . I have Autoditacker and I. Tahiti . . .so i can only speak for those two. But I prefer Autoditacker much more over I. T., i feel as though there's much more going on without it being too busy or overindulgent. I feel as though Autod. covers more ground sonically, but at the same time, it's not quite as "in your face" as I. T. I.T. is a great release, most definitely, but the sounds seem to be underdeveloped and pasted in -- whereas the sounds in Autod. seem to be twisted n turned n pulled into quirky little grooves . . . "X-flies" is probably my favorite track . . . most mellow i think. Another reason i prefer Autod. over I. T. . . . Autod. seems to have less harsh melodies, more bubbly electronics. So those are my few cents . . I haven't heard anything released after Autod., but would love to get ahold of Instrumentals on CD if ever possible . . Also love the MoM support for Stereolab's Dots n Loops. Take care all . . . sean. np: Windy + Carl : The Drawing of Sound
