Needle Mythology, the label founded by music writer, author and broadcaster Pete Paphides, is honoured to announce the release of Think Once More • A Journey with The Montgolfier Brothers, the first ever anthology by the feted duo made up of Mancunian musicians Roger Quigley and Mark Tranmer.
The Montgolfier Brothers released three acclaimed albums between 1999 and 2005. Roger Quigley had released music as Quigley and At Swim Two Birds, while Mark Tranmer has released music both as GNAC, in his own name and with Vetchinsky Settings. The Montgolfier Brothers’ music is perhaps best compared to that of artists such as The Durutti Column, Yann Tiersen, Young Marble Giants and Robert Wyatt – artists whose music is celebrated for its ability to arouse deep emotion by the sparest of means.
Working closely with the family of Roger Quigley who passed away in 2020, Think Once More was sequenced by Mark during the summer of 2024.
Think Once More gathers together music from the albums Seventeen Stars, All My Bad Thoughts and The World Is Flat.
