Biography
Daniil Matseychuk was born in Kyiv, it happened on 09/20/1988. Nothing is known about school time, but largely due to his attractive appearance, he was able to work as a dancer and model in various Ukrainian publications.
He had known the members of the Quest Pistols group for a long time, it was they who invited him to join their ranks. Thus, the career of the future singer and dancer started. Most importantly, he shared all the interests of the band members.
Career
The musical group Quest Pistols brought immense popularity to Daniil Matseychuk, of which he is a part. It all started with the television project "Chance", which was quite popular. A trio of guys who showed incendiary dances and sang well reached the finals of this competition.
Immediately after the end of the television project, the group became famous, but at that time Daniil was not in its composition. Already in 2007, Quest Pistols released their first album "For You". The sales starts were so effective that it was immediately entered into the status of "gold". Every song that appeared became a hit. Thus, the popularity grew, but at one point the soloist left the group, so I had to urgently look for a replacement for him.
In 2011, Daniil Matseychuk joined the team. At that time, the group's songs sounded in almost every corner of the entire post-Soviet space.
Of course, the artists performed abroad and received a considerable number of prizes and awards.
The guys positioned themselves as a dance-musical ensemble and did their job well. Millions of fans around the world listened to their songs.
The choice fell in the direction of Daniil, because he shares all the life positions of the participants: he does not drink alcohol, does not smoke, does not go to entertainment establishments and is a vegetarian. But as it turned out, Matseychuk would not last long in the group, he earned popularity and in 2013 decided on a solo career.
Together with Borovsky, he created a new musical association "KBDM", in addition to everything, he is engaged in the development of new areas of fashionable clothing, has a club project and much more. Thanks to the earned popularity, he manages to develop and popularize his activities as efficiently as possible.
Personal life
Every fan not only of Daniil Matseychuk, but also of the Quest Pistols would like to know about his personal life. In a relationship with a girl, a guy has been for a long time. More recently, they began to live together, which was very well covered in the media.
We immediately found a common language in terms of spirit and activity. We were united by the Quest ballet. There were a lot of dances, competitions and shows, we performed as backup dancers and looked better than the artist. One day, our producer and creator of the Quest ballet, and later the Quest Pistols group, Yuri Bardash, called me and invited me to perform at the Big Love Show instead of one of the team members. Of course, I agreed, then it was a one-time action. And then we decided to continue cooperation. We've been together for a long time. Everyone is engaged in their own creative development. In 2011 I became a full member of Quest Pistols. For a while we went to concerts as a group of four: Anton, Nikita, Kostya and me. For many years of active concert activity, some participants left, new ones appeared, as now - Mariam, Ivan and Washington. But in general, we always go in the same vector: development and creativity. And in order not to stagnate, sometimes you need to update yourself and the environment. 
And so it was with each of the participants. Quest Pistols Show is more than a band, it has long been a brand in the music ring. Of course, there are different sides, different emotions, everyone is affected differently by the stage and fame, constant training and touring life. We have a very busy schedule, but the result of our work speaks for itself. And if you do not engage in some spiritual practices, do not cultivate humility and love in yourself, then sometimes you can break loose. But we are professionals, so we develop, try, keep friendship and peace. The philosophy of Quest Pistols Show participants is that everyone should have the right to be happy. By helping others, you help yourself. I want to be happy, so if I make a few people in this world happy, then I myself will be happy. I would like people to want to make people happy, not the other way around. 
I believe that the fittest survive. But many people misunderstand this phrase. Strength lies in love, forgiveness, admitting one's mistakes, in repentance, and not in physical manifestation. We must cultivate love, but in the good sense of the word, without going to extremes. You have to respect yourself and those around you. Recently, a story happened to me: my friend and I left a photo shoot, went to a supermarket at night, and at the exit we met a company that did not like my jacket from an Italian designer. They decided to measure their strength, because there were only 15 of them, and there were two of us. In today's world, people are very ignorant, they do not think about their actions, they easily hang labels. In the post-Soviet space, people lived under the influence of tyranny for a very long time, and this was reflected in the younger generation, but I know that soon people will begin to think differently. 
I am doing a job that I like, and I am very happy when I understand that someone likes it too. My fans are particles of my whole. My work is me, and I give myself to it entirely. There have been many problems in my life. I faced a lot of troubles, went to work early - performed with a Brazilian show at the age of 13-14. But my parents always believed in me, gave me love and gave me support. I am very lucky that I have incredibly cool friends, very sincere and honest. I grew up in Kyiv, but I travel often since childhood, so many of my friends are from Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, the USA and Europe. This is a small circle of friends, but they are always with me. We may not see each other for a long time and not communicate, but we cherish our friendship. Cherish love and value freedom. 
I had unrequited love, and, of course, this is a very strong motivator for personal growth. When you realize that something is going wrong, you start to improve. I had different relationships. This is a very strong energy that cannot be harnessed. If you are in a network, then it already controls you. I think it's essential for creativity. Psychologically, love can be overwhelming, but you start working on yourself and become better. I can’t say that I am amorous, but I am very attached to people. I couldn't live without relationships. Relationships give me a lot of energy and support, which is very important for a man. I am not a supporter of flaunting my relationship and protecting my family hearth. And I'm always serious in relationships. 
When you work in public, you will encounter different opinions anyway. I am grateful to every well-wisher and ill-wisher. Friends and enemies see one person, but the former focus on qualities, the latter on shortcomings, this is all an incentive for growth. I am an introvert and can be alone with myself for a very long time. You can say that I spend a lot of time in the office, but for me the office is a studio, a dance hall where I train. I collect impressions and events, moods, smells and tastes. But sometimes I like to just lie down and do nothing. All my tattoos have meaning and are my personal artifacts. I believe in symbolism and affirmations, that is, everything you say and do attracts the same consequences. What goes around comes around. I got my first tattoo at the age of 17, I don't know why, but I always wanted to get a lot of tattoos. Since childhood, I have painted my hands, and they scolded me, they said that only prisoners walk like that. And for a long time I could not understand why people avoid tattoos so much. But when I read the history of tattoos, I became so interested that I decided to become a tattoo artist myself and often paint my friends. 
T-shirt - Zara, jeans - Acne Studios. I have never judged or compared people.
It's unpleasant to do this. I have a business that I do. I have data that I got from my parents and from God. I develop them, cultivate my positive qualities. Envy is a big problem in today's world. My parents taught me that if you take on something, you need to bring it to the end. I have learned this since childhood and adhere to this principle in everything. My zodiac sign is Virgo. There is some truth in horoscopes. But I believe in God - it's much more interesting. 
This article will talk about a unique Ukrainian team called Quest Pistols, in particular about the life and work of one of its members. Daniil Matseychuk, whose biography is of interest to many, was part of the group for only a few years, but it was during this period that Quest Pistols gained crazy popularity around the world. How was the group formed? How is the team different from many others? How did Daniil Matseychuk get into Quest Pistols? Read more about this.
From the history of the creation of an outrageous group
There are jokes that do not lose their relevance at all times - jokes that live forever. The reader will surely smile, but the Quest Pistols group is also a joke that the listener liked and stayed with him for a long time. The idea to put on a number for the dancing guys came to the organizers of the television show "Chance". On the notorious April 1, the guys were supposed to cheer the audience with their debut song "I'm tired, I want love." But they not only managed to make others smile, but also to get their love and recognition. More than 60,000 TV viewers voted for the singing dancers, thanks to which the Quest Pistols made it to the final of the show. Now Konstantin Gorovsky, Nikita Goryuk and Daniil Matseychuk are real stars, despite the fact that some of the guys have already left the group.
Debut album
Even the producers of the show could not imagine such a success - Quest Pistols became a new popular pop group. In the fall of the same 2007, the group released their debut album, which was called "For You". Soon, according to the results of sales, it became gold and in the spring of 2008 it was introduced in Russia. The video for the song "I'm tired" almost immediately after the release hit the top ten hits on the MTV channel.
Line-up of Quest Pistols
Initially, the team had three members - Anton Savlepov, Konstantin Borovsky and Nikita Goryuk. In 2011, another soloist appeared in the team - Daniil Matseychuk. After some time, Kostya Borovsky left the group, so there were three guys again.
In February 2011, information appeared in the press that Anton Savlepov was also leaving the group. A few days later, the artist announced that he had changed his mind. As he explained earlier, the reason for his thoughts about leaving was a mental crisis. After filming the video for the song “You are so beautiful,” the artist decided to stay in the team.
The style of the Quest Pistols group and the features of its members
Quest Pistols have invented their own style of music - artists call it "aggressive-intelligent-pop". The texts for the compositions for children are written by Izolda Chetkha, who works under the pseudonym Alexander Chemerova. A talented member of the musical group "Dymna Sumish" finds the strength, time and imagination not only to write songs for her group, but also for the Quest Pistols. The only composition of the period from 2007 to 2012, which was not written by her, is called "White Dragonfly of Love". The author of the words was a novice musician The works of recent years came from the pen of the soloist Goryuk.
The main feature of the youth team is that none of the participating children drink alcohol, smoke or go to nightclubs. All of them lead a healthy lifestyle and follow a vegetarian diet. The guys tried to convey their views on life to the public in Belgium in September 2007, performing with the program “Dance Against Poison”.
Team Awards
Quest Pistols received their first award at the MTV Ukrainian Music Awards ceremony in Donetsk, where they were recognized as the Debut of the Year. In 2008, 2009 and 2011 Quest Pistols received the Golden Gramophone Award and in 2010 the Soundtrack Festival Award.
In the winter of 2011, Quests began their successful tour of US cities - their concerts were held in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco. After an excursion into the life of the team, you can go on to get to know its member, to whom the article is dedicated. Who is Daniil Matseychuk? How did you get into Quest Pistols? Why did he leave and what is he doing now?
Soloist of the group - Daniil Matseychuk: biography
The future soloist of the popular group was born on September 20, 1988 in the capital of Ukraine - the city of Kyiv. Daniil Matseychuk (photo can be seen above) worked as a model and dancer before becoming a star. In 2011, he was invited by old friends to become part of an already popular band. According to Anton Savlepov, Daniil once helped him get through difficult times. When the Quest Pistols members thought about replenishment, he remembered a good old friend and decided to invite him to the team. In addition, Daniel shares the life principles of the guys - he leads a healthy lifestyle and does not eat animal products.
recent years
Participation in Quest Pistols gave each of the guys a good stage school. Daniil Matseychuk performed as part of a group for several years, earned capital and recognition, and in 2013 went on a free voyage. Now he and Konstantin Borovsky, having combined talents and efforts, have created the KBDM creative association, as well as their own clothing brand called KBDM Clothing and the KBDM DJ's club project. Now the young guy has millions of fans and, of course, they interested in his personal life.For a long time, Daniil Matseychuk and his girlfriend hid their relationship in order to increase the rating of the team.But recently it became known that the couple lives together.
Vegetarianism is not just a diet
Daniil Matseychuk is a lacto-vegetarian, that is, he eats only dairy products and foods of plant origin. For an artist, this type of nutrition is not just a diet, it's a way of life. He is convinced that people who do not eat animal corpses are spiritually more developed, their consciousness is cleaner, health is stronger, life is brighter. It is difficult to disagree with this, because the artist himself is an example of this.
By the beginning of the hot season, we are looking for tattooed people from various fields of activity, whom we would like to undress and photograph. Today, the creators of the creative formation KBDM talk about what their tattoos symbolize.
Konstantin Borovsky
Occupation: Artist, designer, photographer, member of the KBDM group.
Age: 33 years.
Number of tattoos: 5 tattoos plus 1.5 sleeve.
My first tattoo was an image on the shoulder of Lauryn Hill, now it is covered with a beautiful black spot. Then Polynesia, mehendi and Vedic yantras were added, which were combined into the right "sleeve". Between the shoulder blades is a tilak, symbolizing that my body is not my property, but belongs to God.

On the collarbones - part of the ornament from vintage Indian postcards. The maha-mantra (names of God) in Sanskrit is stuffed on the chest. On the left side is Hanuman, the hero of the ancient Indian epic, the embodiment of loyalty and courage. This tattoo would be nice to correct, but I constantly put it off: the ribs are one of the most painful places for a tattoo.
The left hand is not finished yet. I started stuffing it with yellow lotuses. Lotus is a symbol of inner purity, which I would like to strive for. A wedding ring is pricked on the ring finger of my right hand, since my usual wedding ring is wide and heavy, and I sometimes take it off, for example, during concerts and while driving a bicycle.

Almost all of my tattoos are made by Vyacheslav Bodrov (a.k.a Shket), which makes me very happy. Sketches I find or draw myself.
It's funny when the aunts on the playground, when I'm walking with my daughter, ask if this is forever. I answer that until this body burns in the crematorium.
Daniil Maceychuk (Daniel Joy)
Occupation: musician, designer, member of the KBDM group.
Age: 25 years.
Number of tattoos: 48,5.
Since childhood, I knew that I would be covered in tattoos. From an early age, I drew mysterious symbols and patterns on the body, which now remain with me to the end. Tattoos are my textural ideas and views that make up my position in life, which serve both as a reminder of something and as a kind of talisman of my body. For me, the symbolism of the tattoo is more important than its external execution.
Since I have about 50 tattoos, the description of each of them will drag on for a long time. Perhaps I will limit myself to a story about the arms, back and chest. I'll leave the legs for next time.
On the phalanges of the fingers and on the ribs of the hand I have written Heart Must (right hand) Have Soul (left hand). These words mean that if there is no soul in the heart, the person is dead.
The right hand, according to the Vedic concept, represents the sun, action, the future. The left is emotions, the past. In other words, with this tattoo I seem to be saying: it is important to act according to the heart, and to feel with the soul. I have the Roman numeral XII engraved on the knuckles of my thumbs. It is a symbol of time, cyclicity.
Tattoos are my textural ideas and views that make up my position in life, which serve both as a reminder of something and as a kind of talisman of my body.
I have the word FAMILY on my back, which stands for Father and Mother I Love You. This applies to my own family as well as to the universe.
On my collarbone I have an inscription in Latin “We doubt on the true path.” I put the following meaning into it: everything that we do disinterestedly is right. Two swallows that hold this inscription mean freedom. And there is also a beautiful legend about sailors who believe that swallows send their souls to God after death.
A lotus from the spiritual world is stuffed on the chest. To be honest, this is my old partak, which I have significantly tweaked. Swastikas on both shoulders call for good luck and energy.
On the left shoulder is the Virgin Mary (sculpture by Michelangelo) and my family's credo in Latin: "Everyone is the blacksmith of his own happiness." Below is an image of Saint Michael defeating a demon, which symbolizes the need to fight with his false ego, the personification of evil within himself. Pegasus is stuffed further - a symbol of aspiration, upward movement, development. Triangles on the inside of both elbows symbolize the feminine. Hanuman is a symbol of devotion, Shiva is the patron of all the fallen. The reverse anagram of True reads Love.
Now for the right hand. Graffiti tattoo from Vrindavan is dedicated to my mother. The red bracelets all over the body (there are 32 in total, so far only 12 are stuffed) correspond to the 32 syllables of the maha-mantra. The sacred sea shell represents sound, the whole world, vibration. Garuda is a symbol of service and self-denial, Brahma is the creator of our material world and the forefather of all living beings.
Several masters work with my body. This process usually takes a lot of time, always in different ways: it happens that we manage to do it in one session, and sometimes several years are not enough to complete the work. My friends are masters Vyacheslav Bodrov, Sergey Voloboev, Slava Kononov, Jenna Bouma and others. It is very important for me to prepare a sketch and arrange it for my body, of course, taking into account the professional opinion of the master, so all ideas are embodied in the best possible way.
"Can I touch it?" is perhaps the strangest question I get asked about tattoos. It seems that everyone sees poorly and cannot believe their eyes until they touch me.
In old age, it will look even better, but in general, when I finish with all the tattoo ideas on my soul temple, then modern technologies will allow me to remove my old skin and replace it with a new one, just printed on a 3D biological printer. And I'll hang the old one in a safe place and wear it only on holidays.
