Following their eponymous debut album and the vertiginous Everest, Rue des Garderies continue their semi-narcotic explorations with Jiddu.

Around a stretched, distorted sample, a 16-minute improvisation recorded on a summer’s night, interacting with their immediate environment: truncated discussions, laughter, noises of joy, silences, love…

The whole piece seems to exist in an unknown zone of our psyche – a zone that was unknown until then, but which was obvious at the time: an automatic writing done in total freedom, reminiscent of trip-hop and abstract electronic from the 90s.

Was it a dream?

Recorded during a pre-summer evening of June 2023, in the wild living room of Rue des Gardes, Paris 18.
