Unrelated to the health aspects, but if you like electronic music and the Didgeridoo check out Aphex Twin's album "Digeridoo". It's so good.

And also the mandatory "Treaty, Yeah!":

?Yothi Yindi? I listened to this song a bit back in the early nineties but it sounds a bit dated now. (Ironically the traditional instruments sound a lot better than the synths.)

Didgeridoo (when played properly) can sound great. Like the bagpipes there are a lot of people who can barely play, but go out busking.

You may like Tribal Need's Genetic Modification Of Sound. Ricardo Moretti is also busking with a Roland Juno synth, looper and didgeridoo. I saw him in Berlin a couple of times in the early 2010s.

If you like psy electronic music, there is 'The Mystic Didgeridoo':

The carnyx is the nearest traditional western European equivalent. There is a guy who plays it called John Kenny who I don't rate. Abraham Cupeiro, on the other hand, is amazing. See here:

This is more Trance than Techno, but Highlight Tribe use the Didge in a very aggressive way as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcvAwqi4krE
Always my first thought when reading/hearing the word.
