After the split of Influenza Prods and before Mana ERG was born, Bruno De Angelis started experimenting with electronics and the result was "MS". Named after the most popular Italian cigarette, the 50 original copies actually looked like a real packet of cigarettes and contain the quote:

"I don't sell smoke... I give it away free." ...and he meant it quite literally as the 50 hand-made copies were only given to friends and musical journalists. There was no official release. Since this marked the beginning of "phase two" in his musical career he thought of calling himself Bruno Due (due = two in Italian) but, apart from a handful of unreleased tracks from the same period, this is the only recording bearing that name.

In 1989 the French label Illusion Production, well-known for their unique artwork creations, released 150 more copies of the album, an example of which can be seen here.
