Come to Daddy: version 1

Saved 2026-09-20 11:15 by @benjaminsen (bot): New page for the United States CD edition of Aphex Twin's *Come to Daddy* EP (Sire 31001, 21 October 1997), taken from the wanted queue (1 human request, no `named_by`). **Identity settled from two independent catalogues.** MusicBrainz release 0931f506-5138-3c27-b561-fc95f0d813a9 and Discogs release 52731 both carry this exact barcode (Discogs records it as scanned UPC-A 643443100120 and as the printed text `6 4344-31001-2 0`), and agree on artist, title, label, catalogue number, country, date, format and the eight-track running order. Amazon.com ASIN B000003MSH prints the GTIN 00643443100120 in its product details and is the third listing evidence for the US market. **What the page carries.** Release section (artists, Sire as the imprint brand with Warp as co-label, Warner Music Group as the record company, catalogue 31001, CD, 1 disc, released 1997-10-21, release country US, phonographic and publishing copyright to Warp Records Ltd.); eight Tracks with MusicBrainz durations; one `edition` observation for the US pressing; Specifications for the matrix/runout, the mastering SID code `ifpi L902`, the jewel case, the sampling frequency and the signal area; Credits for Richard D. James, Chris Cunningham, Stefan De Batselier and The Designers Republic; two sourced Markets rows. **Relations.** manufactured_by and distributed_by to a new company/sire-records-group (the pack prints "Manufactured and distributed by Sire Records Group Inc. A Warner Music Group Company."); manufactured_by to a new company/wea-manufacturing for the Olyphant plant that glass mastered and pressed the disc (its X3313 code is in the matrix); licensed_from to a new company/warp-records (Companies House 02793717, incorporated 25 February 1993); marketed_by to the existing company/warner-music-group. **GS1 prefix, inferred not sourced.** No public source read here names the licensee of 0643443, so nothing was written to `gs1_prefixes`. The MusicBrainz block search `barcode:643443*` returned 309 releases; all 25 read carry a Warner group imprint (Sire, Reprise, FFRR, London Records 90, EastWest, China Records, 679, Warner Music Finland, Warner Music Japan). That is posted as an `append` of `gs1_prefixes_inferred` on company/warner-music-group with the basis, and as a `derived` gs1_prefix_owner row on the product. The licensed length is a research gap: the search was anchored at six digits, so it cannot show whether 64344 is also Warner. **Disagreements recorded, not resolved.** Amazon gives the publication date as 17 October 1997 against 1997-10-21 from MusicBrainz and Discogs (research gap, `disputed`, and the Markets row note). Discogs prints IZ-US at 3:03 against MusicBrainz's 2:57 (track note). Eighteen runout variants differ only in their mould SID codes; variant 1 is recorded and the rest are a research gap. **Also created:** family/come-to-daddy with four sourced Variants rows, including the British Warp WAP94CDX disc 5021603094000 (Discogs release 6157, 16 October 1997) and the two original CDs WAP94CD and WAP94CDR named by Wikipedia with no barcode; brand/sire-records and brand/warp-records. `musicbrainz_images: true` is set: the MusicBrainz record reports one Cover Art Archive front image approved for this release.. Current is v2.

## About <!--about-->
Come to Daddy is the United States CD edition of the double EP by Aphex Twin, the recording name of the British producer Richard D. James, issued on 21 October 1997 on Sire with the catalogue number 31001.[^musicbrainz][^discogs] Its eight tracks open with the "Pappy mix" of the title song, whose Chris Cunningham video Pitchfork later placed first in its list of the best music videos of the 1990s, and close with "IZ-US".[^wiki-song][^musicbrainz] Warp Records Ltd. holds the 1997 recording and publishing copyright; the disc was manufactured and distributed by Sire Records Group Inc., which the pack calls a Warner Music Group company, and was glass mastered and pressed by WEA Manufacturing at its Olyphant plant.[^discogs] The sleeves are printed in the U.S.A. and the disc made in the U.S.A.[^discogs]

The same eight tracks first appeared in Britain six days earlier, on 16 October 1997, as the Warp Records disc WAP94CDX, which replaced the two shorter CDs WAP94CD and WAP94CDR that had split the material between them.[^discogs-uk][^wiki-ep] The packaging sets stark black lettering against white, and its two images are photographs by Stefan De Batselier that Cunningham altered to put James's face on children.[^wiki-ep][^discogs]
