NEW ALBUM "Whatever Works" 
Out 1st of April 2020.

Andi Fins is a Berlin-based producer, singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. 
Following the launch of his third album ‘How Will Our Hero Get Out of This One’ Andi continues to let our little hero shine on his new album "Whatever works" which will be released in April this year featuring stories of characters dealing with the dusty glamour of modern life.

WHATEVER WORKS (OUT ON 1ST OF APRIL 2020)

On Andi’s new album WHATEVER WORKS his own shortcomings are elevated to a glamorous way of life. 
When he sleeps through the party in "Opportunities" and meets his alter ego in "French Movie" in an indistinct infinity the smoke rings keep on circling until they end up surrounding some new world pictures in "Wasting my time“. Quite incidentally, but fortunately. It can be hard to show your feelings - provided that you have any.

The album is about how you can make a fool out of yourself though you’re trying to impress, why you can get angry even though the sun is actually shining on your head and it reminds you how good it feels when something is coming out of the blue, even though you haven't expected anything from that direction for a long time. You long for vacation, until you feel it by entering the corner store at night and after some practice you defeat your weaker self and say something nice to someone you love anyways, without thinking about the risk that you could be vulnerable.  You can also get a little jealous of those who are able to deal much better with all those issues, but hey, "come on, could you play a happy song for me?"   The album was recorded from summer to autumn 2019. Its basics were recorded at ZODIAQUE together with Alex Binder and Hanno Stick and finished in Andi's home studio bit by bit. Ideas became phrases and music, sketches developed to forms, some of them were discarded, some of them got picked up again and some ideas were there immediately and just wanted to be recorded. At the end there is a selection of songs which display a certain period of lifetime the best and it remains the good feeling of never being done with anything but still having the desire to discover something new.
WHATEVER WORKS is Andi's first album on vinyl.

Mr. Bugslow’s „Backyard Cinema“ – Roadmovie für die Ohren. Soundtrack für Herz und Hirn, der sich festkrallt in der Seele und in die Beine fährt. Platz schafft im Alltagsgerümpel der Gedanken und Türen aufstößt für Träume... 
Mit viel Spiel- und Experimentierfreude bereiten Mr. Bugslow mit ihrer Musik die Leinwand für ein „Hörkino“ der besonderen Art. Vor urbaner Kulisse intensiver Grooves winden sich subtile Melodielinien, perlende Läufe, akzentuierte Bläsersätze – Stimmungen entstehen, Landschaften tauchen auf, phantastische Wesen und Visionen... Film ab!

Mr. Bugslow's "Backyard Cinema" is a road movie for the ears; an urban soundtrack for the heart and mind which clings to the soul and gets into your feet. It creates space in the clutter of everyday thoughts and opens up the door to dreams... The music of Mr. Bugslow directly affects both the body and the consciousness, and the story of its production is extraordinary: December 2010: the idea of winter finally lives up to its reputation, with cities sunken in snow and Antarctic temperatures freezing rivers and lakes up and down the country. And cars? Unimportant - the king is whoever is wearing warm boots, or like the four members of Mr. Bugslow, whoever has a vision, a well-heated studio, the number of the local pizzeria and three weeks to spend in their own musical cosmos. For years they have worked on (or rather invented, created and developed) their own unique sound. All four are studied musicians who have successfully navigated their way through experimental pop, electro/techno, singer-songwriter, film music, folk and avant-garde. Everything flows together, and everything has meaning. But what unites Christian Kohlhaas (trombone), Philip Martin (bass), David Schwarz (keyboards) and Jörg Wähner (drums) is their love of jazz, the pinnacle of improvisation and intuition. They managed to compress all of this experience into their three-week "studio retreat". During the production process, they dug out the rich sound for the nine musical gems on their debut album "Backyard Cinema" from the drifts of snow. With its incredible musicianship and experimentation, Mr. Bugslow’s music creates a screen on which to project their unique "cinema of the mind". From a polished backdrop of intense grooves, subtle melodies, sparkling musical lines and a nuanced brass section take shape. Moods are created, landscapes emerge, and scents trigger memories... Action! 


Per Anders singt klar und schön mit dieser Stimme die einen umarmt und wärmt und schützen will vor dem unerbittlichen Grau der Großstadt.
Nebenbei spielt er eine Menge an Instrumenten wie jemand, der viel Zeit in seinem Kämmerchen verbracht hat,um die Welt Welt sein zu lassen.
Jörg Holdinghausen schafft sich selbst und seinen Mitmusikern hier ein Podium um sich auszuprobieren und Dinge zu riskieren,die in einem mainstreamigeren Kontext nur schwer möglich gewesen wären.
Das nun dritte Album,
die 2016  erschienene EP „Transit“ hat erneut an Wagemut und Intensität gewonnen. 
Sie schwebt dunkel zwischen psychedelischem Indierock und trance-artigen Voodoo-Jams.
