Sans Le Systeme started out as a studio-based project for JG Everest, in 1999, when The Sensational Joint Chiefs took an extended break from performing. It began as a recording collaboration with Jeremy Ylvisaker, Martin Dosh, and Mark Erickson at Ylvisaker’s Greenhouse Studio. This new direction of moody, atmospheric instrumental music and studio experimentation led to the formation of Lateduster that same year, and the SLS project was put on hold, save for one track, “Wipes (thank you + goodbye)” which ended up on the CROSSFADED vol. 1 compilation in 2002. When Lateduster went on its own hiatus in 2003, Everest returned to the idea of seriously recording these personal instrumental tracks and set about assembling a modest home studio where he could explore his ideas and lay them down to tape. Soon two albums began to take shape - a singer/songwriter record that would become Hush Money, and the instrumental electronic-tinged Sans Le Systeme songs. Hush Money was released first, in 2004, and finally, in late 2005, Everest finally wrapped up the SLS recording, also completed with long-time collaborator Ben Durrant at his Crazy Beast Studio.
