Recycled Plastik is an extended play by Canadian electronic music producer Richie Hawtin under the alias Plastikman. It was released in 1994 by Novamute Records.
The EP, released a few months before the Plastikman album Musik, features "Spastik", which has been described as "perhaps [Hawtin's] most well-known Plastikman production, a signature track that never ceased to inspire feverish reactions among Hawtin fanatics."[1] The remaining five tracks are likewise rooted in Hawtin's trademark minimal style.[1]

| AllMusic |   [1] |
Jason Birchmeier of AllMusic wrote that Recycled Plastik "isn't nearly as thematic or continuous as the other Plastikman releases, [but] it functions well for what it is, an EP intended to showcase 'Spastik' and set the stage for the upcoming Musik album."[1]
