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 . . .
