OK If you have the Roxette DVD then it is Simple.
Mats “myrdal” Persson is Seen on the Run To You Video, about halfway through, you see him at the drums with a head set on, He has a shaved head.
Mats “MP” Persson you will see on the Making Of Joyride Documentary, you see him with per at T&A making the Big L Demo.

MP (of gyllene tider) is working with plenty other bands from halmstad, he´s member of “back on stage” (playing drums) and working with other young bands, like the rasmus or ethan xipith (don´t know the right name)...
he took part of production of MAZARIN, and he composed e.g. the melody of queen of rain, or listen to your heart...
and he has a huge connection to the T&A studio.... =:)))

“and he has a huge connection to the T&A studio....”
I would rather say he has a full connection to T&A, he is the owner :P

Mats MP Persson has nothing to do with The Rasmus. Producer of The Rasmus is Micke “Nord” Andersson. Check for example here: http://www2.dailyroxette.com/article.php/459

Mats Persson played drums on the live concerts in 1994 and 95 together with Pelle...now that was for me quite origianal and uncommon 2 drummers on a single set....then he’s a hell of a laugh...loved when he went on dancing with Marie on the Dressed For Sucess performance on the South African concert in Johanesbourgh...
Usually to distinguis both “Mats” one is called simply Mats (the fat guy i was talking about) and the other is our very own MP at least Per is always calling him MP...MP3????????????’LOL just kiding

Mats also worked with Milla on the Pleasure & Pain (1991, demo’ed in Tits & Ass, features Mats on Bass and Drum Programming on the Angel track) album (actually quite good Pop album) and with Mikael Erlandsson (Swedish AOR/rock artist) on the albums The One (1994, Mats plays almost all instruments on this one!) and The Gift (2002, both Christer Jansson and Mats play on this album).
On the Milla album also some other well-known Rox-related musicians are featured, like drummer Christer Jansson (also features on The Gift of M.E.), Staffan Astner (worked both with Roxette and Marie, as well as on the Anglamark single), Camilla Andersson (e.g. Backing vocals on I Do Believe Demo).
And if you are a fan of Jonas Isacsson, try to find both Horizont albums (group Jonas played in in the 80s) or his solo album!
If you need more info, just drop me a line..
