Шаблон:See also Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Lowercase title Шаблон:BLP sources Шаблон:Infobox musical artist gnac is a pseudonym used by songwriter and music producer Mark Tranmer.[1] The name is derived from a short story by Italo Calvino in Marcovaldo titled Luna e GNAC (or "moon and gnac").[1]

Tranmer's music has been described as "imaginary film soundtracks" with comparisons made to Michael Nyman, Ennio Morricone, and Michel Legrand.[1] Vini Reilly has been identified as an influence.[2]

After releasing several singles between 1998 and early 1999, his debut album, Friend Sleeping, was released in July 1999 on the Vespertine label.[1] For his second studio album he moved to Alan McGee's Poptones label. Tranmer also recorded with Roger Quigley under the name The Montgolfier Brothers, releasing two albums.[1]

Tranmer has also released an album under his own name, and has recorded with Ian Masters (of Pale Saints/Spoonfed Hybrid) under the name Wingdisk.
