I've recently fallen back into a deep, twisted, NSFW love with Autoditacker.
The synths are so rubbery and juicy, the drums so crisp, the production so perfect. I've never been able to name my favorite album by Mouse on Mars, but this could very well be it.

My favorite track on the album, now hold on, hold on, at the moment is Tux & Damask. This is likely subject to change as I love them all.

I really like Niun Niggung, too. For me, that is another very interesting album. But I think Autoditacker might just be the essential album by Mouse on Mars. I've heard a good portion of their discography too: Glam, Vulvaland, Iaora Tahiti, Actionist Respoke, Idiology, Rost Pocks EP collection, and possibly another I might be forgetting. I'd love to get my hands on every release by them, simply from a collector's standpoint, but it would be nice to hear what I've been missing.
And there I go narrowly avoiding breaking the rules of the thread by almost discussing other works by them.

ye, i too would love to own the entire mouse on mars catalogue. 'glam' is probably my favourite. little subtle sounds and sweet ambience.

was going to post a bit on how I like Glam as well, especially Glim. I guess we might as well discuss whatever we want here, as long as it's mainly related to Mouse on Mars. On the subject of Glam, Port Dusk is a nice track, as well.

In my opinion, Mouse on Mars produced some of the best electronic music of the 90s on Autoditacker and Iaora Tahiti.
I can't quite describe the music. No-one has ever made squiggles and pops sound so organic.

"No-one has ever made squiggles and pops sound so organic."
yeah, that's what I was attempting to say but you hit the nail on the head. I'm listening to Iaora Tahiti right now just because I haven't listened to that in a long time, either.

The trademarked squeeky sounds always give them away; possible the funnest "idm" music there is. Iaora is my favorite, but not always. More textures and moods w/ same consistent quality = great!!

Varchaz is really good, then? I've been meaning to check that out but haven't heard much buzz around it. Will have to look into that.

the part where the "wood blocks" melody comes in around 2:00 is so good, I get it stuck in my head for days. It's the good kind of catchy.

i've been trying to find the Viva Zwei Wah Wah Mouse On Mars (uber funny) Special from their Japan tour/visit, but in vein. I have it recorded on vhs (2 tapes, 2 versions, SP and LP, actually) and i'm going to upload it in the next few years time.
but if the documentary is already up there and anyone knows where it is, please tell

YES!
been in a mouse on mars phase the last week.
iaora tahiti + autoditacker + instrumentals = some of the coolest electronic sounds i've ever heard.
