Digeridoo is an extended play record by the electronic music producer and musician the Aphex Twin. It was released in January 1992 through R&S Records.[1] The title track had previously been released as "Aboriginal Mix" on Analog Bubblebath Vol 2.

The UK edition, released in April 1992, entered the Dance Singles Chart at No. 10,[2] and the main Singles Chart at No. 55,[3] on 9 May.

"Digeridoo" does not contain an actual didgeridoo sample. Instead, James spent three days creating an "electronic simulacrum".[4]
