Do it Now!

Urban Shakedown · 1992
Recording

Produced by Aphrodite (Gavin King) and Claudio Giussani in collaboration with Mickey Finn in 1992, the track was created using a Commodore Amiga and showcases meticulous sample arrangement and rapid-fire breakbeat editing. Released in 1992 as a landmark old skool hardcore record, Do It Now! became a defining dancefloor staple that exemplified the genre's euphoric intensity and innovative production techniques, establishing Aphrodite as a leading figure in UK hardcore and early jungle. The track endures as a foundational text of 1990s UK hardcore and drum and bass, widely recognized for its influence on Aphrodite's subsequent jump-up jungle work and its status as a canonical reference point in breakbeat and rave culture.
