Artist History
After the split of a rock/pop band called Flu,
Bruno De Angelis, who wrote most of the songs for
them, went back to his old love of writing short
electronic/experimental pieces. At the same time,
he concentrated more on running his recording
studio and on helping, advising and producing new
interesting bands playing different genres, from
"Metal" to "Jazz",from "Industrial" to "Psychobilly"...
It was this contact with other musical worlds that inspired
him to start a new "band" with players from
different backgrounds acting as "special guests"
in different songs. In fact the whole idea behind
Mana ERG is to attempt to break the barriers that
divide people, whether they be musical barriers,
language barriers, philosophical barriers or
whatever is artificially built between a person
and another person, and stops them from seeing
what they have in common. |
