Whenever the "On" single was released. We got a promo in the
record store where I was working at the time.

Mtv used windowlicker in a commercial,some years ago.
That was the first time I heard rdj,but that doesn't count.

so it's this:

Spring 2000.
The girl/boy song,in school.

June last year. My best mate bought me the Come to Daddy EP
for my birthday. That is why I love that girl.

Late 2000, early 2001. It was tracks I got off Napster,
mostly from I Care Because You Do. Did it after reading
about Thom Yorke talking about his favorite artists, and one
of them was RDJ.

RDJ album, but again without even knowing who the man

About five or six years ago when the richard d james album
was released. And I hated it at first. It eventually grew on
me.

It was a long time ago, 1994 or 95 I think. I had a
compilation album called "In order to dance 5" from
R&S(RDJ's former label) and Digeridoo and Analogue
Bubblebath were on it. I thought I was going mad when I
first heard Digeridoo, it was all so new to me...

When RDJ album was released. I didn't pay much attention
though until I saw Come To Daddy on MTV. Then I went mad
and began to buy up all his records.

I listen to him for then years. My first introduction to
Richards are records like Didgeridoo, Joyrex J4/J5 in his
good old style. I feel a lot of nostalgia for that period
:-). From then i have bought every record he released

1996

First thing I heard of his was his stuff on Further Down The
Spiral, I loved At The Heart Of It All. After that
I bought RDJ Album and didn't quite like it at first, but
then I became attached to it.

i knew of him for a long time caus i listen to electronic
music ever since i listen to music, when one day i found a
tape in my sister's room with old korn (i was well into
stuff like that back in 98 or 99) on one face and there was
CtD on the other face... after listening to come to
daddy i was wondering who it was that made hard rock like
that... the rest of the cassette blown me away. when i
discovered the name aphex twin on it i remembered the old
techno tune (didgeridoo) i began to dig deep for his stuff
to hear what other surprises he had for my hears!

played the video to 'On' and I said to myself 'WTF?' I
ignored my friend as it was playing!.. a little thorn in a
pile of roses.... }:>
