Black Market Gardening is Fila Brazillia at the peak of creativity. Few other bands can create such a "live feel" with so much technology. Black Market combines downtempo stone cold chillers with hustlin latin soul and disco and deep space vibe like few other records. Blubber Plinth changes effortlessly from a trip hop hazer to out and out break beat stomper and tracks like Xique Xique and Onc Mongani roll on forever in blissful phased and reverbed crescendos. It all comes crashing down with the brilliantly mono-toned and thunder filled July 23rd. This crop was well tended and raised in the sunlight of high summer and nurtured to bring about one of the finest vintages of its time.
