INTERVIEW WITH WAVE IN HEAD, 11th Dec 2000
INTERVIEW PART 2

other things that surely are interesting for a lot of fans, a kind of
questionaire. What are your 3 favourite songs of all times?
ANSWER: First: Depeche Mode – Everything Counts; Second: Second:
Art Of Noise – Paranoimia; Third: Kraftwerk – Electric Cafe
QUESTION: What is your favourite book?

QUESTION: And your favourite movie?
ANSWER: That’s easy. Matrix!!
QUESTION: When would the point be reached, where you would stop making
music?
ANSWER: If it stops making fun!
QUESTION: Who is your idol (in a non-musical sense)?
ANSWER: My mother. Always in a good mood, always diplomatic and with
power without end!
QUESTION: What artist would you like to sing a duet with?
ANSWER: Blümchen?! (a German dance singer, quite trivial music
for kids; note of the translator)
QUESTION: What do you want to say with your texts?
ANSWER: Stories of everyday life; moments, which have a different effect
when watched through a magnifying glass. They often are about time and
it’s effects, parting, expectation, remembrance, future. Lots of
things happen to us; the environment, the stress of everyday life, mankind
as a whole...
QUESTION: What do you think about the development of Electro pop?
ANSWER: All in all, there are lots of things happening. There are many
influences from other styles. A tendency to commerce is to be seen,
which is not bad in a big sense. I see lots of positive things, but
many people unfortunately still live with their old idols and do not
have the courage to try something new. In general, everything mixes
up. Crossover meets Techno, Heavy Metal mixes with Electro. The clear
boarders are vanishing. The determination of certain musical styles
is becoming a difficult thing. But altogether the Electro pop area sometimes
is too black for me. I have nothing against black – I like black.
But sometimes I want colours.
QUESTION: What is your biggest wish?
ANSWER: That I always stay happy and healthy and that there are two
or three people who like my music!
So far the second part of the interwiew. The third and last part will
follow soon. Gunnar
