    French Traffic (2003-2005)







    French Traffic was Jonathan Klys & Michael F. Gill. The concept is to record music and do the thinking later. The idea is that your subconscious actions will offer a better picture of yourself then your conscious actions. All music by French Traffic is recorded in one take, and then edited later on. From January 2003 to January 2005, French Traffic amassed 7 hours of music, including 6 full length albums, 2 outtakes albums, and 1 album of 99 short fragments. The group is on hiatus indefinitely at the moment, due to both members living further away from each other.
