Here's a small interview with Mattias from Eurowoman.dk. It's on danish, but I made a quick translation to english.
Read the interview after the cut.
DANISH
20 skud fra hoften: Mattias Kolstrup
Af Lise Ulrich, 01. juni 2012 |
Det danske band Dúnés karismatiske forsanger Mattias, 23, om reinkarnation, godt læsestof og kendisparret, det egentlig ville være lidt fedt at invitere på middag.
Hvad ved kvinder ikke om mænd?
“I ved alt om os! I ved mere om os, end vi ved om os selv.”
Yndlingsfilm?
“Star Wars.”
Hvad læser du lige nu?
“Jeg læser den japanske forfatter Haruki Murakamis sindssygt fede 1Q84-trilogi, som mine forældre har foræret mig. Tak!”
Hvis du ikke var i musikbranchen, hvad ville du så lave?
“Jeg ville være ormefoder ni fod under. “
Hvis du døde og blev reinkarneret som et dyr, hvilket skulle det så være?
“Den kære Piotrek Wasilewski, der spiller bas i Dúné, mente, at jeg ville være en skildpadde, hvilket er et realistisk bud. En skildpadde er tilstrækkelig tilbagelænet og langsom på land, men forbløffende hurtig og elegant i sit rette element.”
Hvis nogen skulle spille dig i en film, hvem skulle det så være?
“Jeg spurgte mine Twitter-followers om dette og ville gerne have givet et svar, der er Newt Gingrich (republikansk kandidat til det amerikanske præsidentvalg, red.) værdigt, men prøver i stedet med noget så røvsygt som et realistisk bud. Jeg ligner på mange måder den engelske skuespiller Jamie Cambell Bower, og vi er jævnaldrende, så hvis han tillægger sig lidt accent, må han være svaret.”
Hvem beundrer du mest?
“Generationerne fra mine tip-tip-oldeforældre til mine forældre, fordi de har kæmpet for at bygge det måske mest socialt komplette samfund op, der er set i menneskets historie – indtil videre. De har slidt for, at jeg i dag kan udleve mine drømme. Jeg har selvfølgelig selv en finger med i spillet, men set i det store perspektiv er deres bestræbelser på at skabe demokrati, frihed og lighed fundamentet i min/Vestens ungdomsgeneration.”
Drømmemiddagsgæster:
“Brangelina ... Av, av, av. Sagde jeg lige det? Men det ville da være fedt, ikke?”
Mest overvurderede:
“Pas.”
Mest undervurderede:
“Oasis’ sidste album, Dig Out Your Soul. Genialt!”
Favoritgadget:
“Forlængelsen af min højre hånd aka. iPhone 4S.”
Yndlingsmad:
“Et bestemt sushisted på The Sunset Strip, som jeg desværre har glemt navnet på. Det er simpelthen det bedste mad, jeg har fået i mit liv! Det var som at spise stykker af himlen – og jeg har fået nogle ret solide måltider i min jyske barndom. Lad os bare sige, at det IKKE var gratis.”
Bedste koncert, du har spillet:
“Vi har spillet så mange sindssyge steder rundt om i verden, men jeg vil nu fremhæve vores koncert i Tivoli tilbage i 2010 som noget helt specielt. At spille en koncert foran 20.000 mennesker som det eneste navn på plakaten var en vild oplevelse.”
Bedste koncert, du selv har været til:
“Det var mine storebrødres band Æfrees afskedskoncert i Brårup Skoles gymnastiksal i Skive. Mads Langer var på keyboard, hans nuværende trommeslager bag gryderne, kunstner Niels Pugholm gav den gas som forsanger og mine storebrødre på guitar: instruktør Jeppe Kolstrup og min anden storebror, der i dag er mikrobiologistuderende på Einstein University i New York ud over at have en aktiv musikkarriere. Det var, som om en gylden kreativ generation fra Skive var samlet i den gymnastiksal den aften.”
Største fremtidsdrøm:
“Det er klart at få lov til at udvikle livet med Dúné endnu mere. Komme længere ud i verden, spille større steder, nå ud til endnu flere mennesker. Få lov at blive ved med at leve af musikken osv.”
Elsker mest:
“Kvinder.”
Kvalitet, du vægter højest hos andre mennesker:
“Tolerance.”
Kvalitet, du vægter højest hos dig selv:
“At jeg kan synge.”
Hvis dit hjem brændte, hvad ville du så redde ud?
“Jeg ville løbe for livet. Intet materielt er mere værd end et menneskeliv.”
Hvad skal du lave i aften?
“Jeg skal ud og have en enkelt bajer med en veninde. En stille og rolig aften er i vente.”

ENGLISH
20 shots from the hip: Mattias KolstrupBy Lise Ulrich, 01 June 2012 | The Danish band Dúné's charismatic frontman Mattias, 23, of reincarnation, good reading material and celebrity couple, it really would be a little cool to invite to dinner.
What do women do about men?
"You know all about us! You know more about us than we know about ourselves. "
Favorite movie?
"Star Wars."
What are you reading right now?
"I read the Japanese writer Haruki Murakami's insanely cool 1Q84 trilogy, as my parents have given me. Thank you! "
If you were not in the music industry, what would you do?
"I would be worms feed nine feet below. "
If you died and was reincarnated as an animal, what would it be?
"The dear Piotrek Wasilewski, who plays bass in Dúné, thought that I would be a turtle, which is a realistic bid. A turtle is enough back and slow on land but amazingly quick and elegant in its element. "
If anyone would play you in a movie, who would it be?
"I asked my Twitter followers about this and would like to have given an answer that is Newt Gingrich (Republican candidate for the U.S. presidential election, Ed.) Commendable, but try instead with something as dead boring as a realistic bid. In many ways I look like the British actor Jamie Campbell Bower, and we are about the same age, so if he gets a little accent, he may be the answer. "
Who do you admire most?
"Generations of my great-great-grandparents to my parents because they have struggled to build perhaps the most socially complete society, to those seen in human history - so far. They have done the work, so I can now live out my dreams. Of course I have a finger in the pie, but in the big picture it's because of their efforts to bring democracy, freedom and equality the foundation of my / West youth generation. "
Dream Dinner Guests:
"Brangelina ... Oh, woe, woe. Did I say that? But it would be cool, right? "
Most overrated:
"Pass."
Most underrated:
"Oasis' last album, Dig Out Your Soul. Brilliant! "
Favorite Gadget:
"The extension of my right hand aka. iPhone 4S. "
Favourite food:
"A certain sushi place at The Sunset Strip, which I unfortunately forgot the name of. It is simply the best food I have had in my life! It was like eating pieces of the sky - and I've got some pretty hearty meals of my childhood in Jutland. Let's just say that it was NOT free. "
Best concert you've played:
"We've played so many crazy places around the world, but I will now highlight our concert in Tivoli back in 2010 as something special. To play a concert in front of 20,000 people as the only name on the poster was a wild experience. "
Best concert you've been to:
"That was my big brothers band Æfrees farewell concert in Brårup School gymnasium in Skive. Mads Langer was on the keyboard, his current drummer behind the pots, artist Niels Pugholm gave it gas as a singer and my big brothers on guitar: director Jeppe Kolstrup and my other brother who is currently microbiology student at Einstein University in New York besides having an active music career. It was as if a golden creative generation of disc was assembled in the gym that night. "
Biggest Future dream:
"It is to be allowed to develop life with Dúné even more. Will go out into the world, playing bigger places, reach even more people. Allowed to continue to live of music, etc. "
Loves most:
"Women."
Quality you value the most in other people:
"Tolerance."
Quality you value the most in yourself:
"That I can sing."
If your home burned down, what would you save out?
"I would run for life. Nothing material is worth more than a human life. "
What are you doing tonight?
"I will go out and have a single beer with a friend. A quiet evening to come. "
Hvad ved kvinder ikke om mænd?
