Wood Chips is the latest incarnation of Danish producer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Andreas Asingh. Some people may already be familiar with Andreas – he was known to the music world as Slowolf in a previous life. Slowolf created electronic music and worked with the likes of Raekwon, MØ and Kimbra.

When Andreas’ youngest son was struck with a serious, life threatening illness it made Andreas re-evaluate the life of his whole family, eventually moving them from Copenhagen to live on a ranch in the Danish countryside. It was here he started to work on the music that would become Wood Chips.

Wood Chips' unique sound of futuristic, weightless, country pop has already received attention and support from international media including The Independent, Notion, Spindle and Clash Magazine following the release of his debut EP, 'Karlo'. Now Andreas is ready to follow that up with his 'Troll Hill' EP.

"My debut EP 'Karlo', was the cathartic process of dealing with my son's long and life-threatening illness back in 2017. Almost losing him was the worst experience of my life but his miraculous return to life and the fact that today he is strong and healthy brings with it an indescribable sense of joy, gratitude and invincibility. A feeling that I bring with me on the "Troll Hill” EP where I celebrate life with peaceful, playful and boundary pushing songs."
The old ranch, and the surrounding woods, have been nurtured by Andreas and his family and Wood Chips has become a project where everyone in the family contributes in their own way. The drums on 'Troll Hill' are played by Andreas' 14-year-old son Albert and his daughters Roberta (8) and Marta (18) are singing vocals throughout the new EP. Also, Andreas is filming all the Wood Chips visual content in collaboration with his long term partner, and the children's mother, Alexandra.

"The woods and our children inspire me and give me a peace of mind, so therefore it makes sense that both elements create the framework for the Wood Chips sound, look and feel. There is a huge amount of creative freedom when filming the videos myself and being able to run into the woods as soon as an idea comes into my head"
'Golden Arrows' is the second song to be released by Andreas' new record label 'Troll Hill Records'. The decision to start his own record label and be his own boss was not a difficult one to make.
"Moving away from the city and into the woods has given me a feeling of total freedom, a feeling that has inspired me to push further and start my own record label where I have complete freedom to cultivate my own organic, musical ideas in peace and harmony and surrounded by those most dear to me."
