CD cover

"Digeridoo" does not contain an actual didgeridoo sample. Instead, according to Simon Reynolds of Energy Flash, "eschewing samples, James labored for three days to concoct an electronic simulacrum of the primordial drone."[3]

The track "Flaphead" on the CD version of the EP is extended by about 20 seconds compared to the vinyl version (here titled "Flap Head").
