Page "Kid A" Paragraph 6

Work began on Kid A with OK Computer producer Nigel Godrich, without a deadline from the label.

Yorke, who had the greatest control within the band, was still facing writer's block.

His new songs were incomplete, and some consisted of little more than a drum machine rhythm and lyric fragments he had drawn from a hat.

The band rehearsed briefly and began recording at a studio in Paris, but rejected their work after a month and moved to Medley Studios in Copenhagen for two weeks.

Some music from early 1999 was incorporated into the album, often unrecognisable from its original form (" In Limbo ", originally known as " Lost at Sea ", dates from this time ).

According to band members, the period was largely unproductive.
