@@deed5811 Jari already did on the podcast lol. It's on all of their KZread channels.

They are WORLD CLASS. I had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with them. They are super nice and humble. You'd never believe they were THESE guys in this video.

My understanding is that Jari wrote the entire arrangement (for all of at least Time I) EXCEPT drums which he didn't feel qualified for, so he asked Kai to write that part. AFAIK both Kai (now official Nightwish member) and Jukka (bass, new session/live bass player for Nightwish) are still full members of Wintersun, even though they have another drummers replacing Kai live (three different so far and they're all pretty damned good too, I sweat it must be something in the water in Finland). We'll see how Wintersun will handle the Bass duties in the future if Jukka keeps on playing with Nightwish (which tends to have a fairly heavy touring schedule). If someone wants to see how nutty what Kai is doing here there's videos on youtube from eXtreme Drummers Universe 2014 where we get an uninterrupted playthrough of it, I think it's good to have seen the real version (this) first but it does showcase how insane the drums in this is (and that the reason he's so sweaty isn't the song itself, it's that they've done LOTS of songs back-to-back at that point). There's also drumcam version of him playing but to a non-drummer they're much less useful.The biggest drawback of all those videos is that they're all 25 or 30fps videos which means Kai is often partially blurry, it's just not fast enough to fully capture Kai properly! XDU2014 video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppaWms9sp7G-ktY.html

Kai is just a machine turned up to 200mph on the drums, I love Wintersun, so emotive and brilliant at expressing the seasons on the album. Jari is the main driving force of Wintersun and his vocals are powerful whether singing cleans or growling. Jukka (the Bass player) is pretty solid too.

On these live sessions, it's Jari, Kai, Teemu and Jukka on bass. About the drummers, Marko from Nightwish compared them both on a documentary about the first album recorded with Kai (Jukka stepped out during that albuns' recording rehearsals). He said something on the lines of "Kai represents the Ian Paice school, while there's more John Bohnam in Jukka's playing." Link for the documentary bellow. Marko's regard starts at about the 1:20:30 mark: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eI6Vm8izlcKndsY.html

Well done sir! Now that you have experienced Wintersun, Unleash the Archers, Epica & Ayreon, we will leave you alone. HaHa, not a chance!

YES Time😍

Thanks! A few details about Kai - He is actually Left Handed, but back in the day when he learned how to play the drums (at the age of 6) he did it like everyone else - Right Handed. Nowadays he can choose to play Right Hand Lead or Left Hand Lead, whatever works best for a song. When he is studying a new song he usually learns how to do it in 4 ways, Right and Left Hand Lead, crossed over Right and Left, and crossed over the other way around, Left - Right. His drum kit is basically symmetrical, Right and Left side. 2 Hi-Hays, a moving one on the Left side and a permanently closed Hi-Hat on the Right side. I can also add that he has a rather humble and modest view of himself, in an interview on the DrumTalk Channel on KZread he was asked if he sees himself as a Drummer, a Musician or an Artist. His answer was a Drummer - Yes; A Musician also Yes, a Musician who's music is rhythm; but an Artist - No, he thought he needs to be more creative to be able to call himself an Artist. I could write quite a lot more about Kai, but instead I'll throw in a link to Pearl Drums website about Kai Hahto, there are some very interesting things to see there. There is a couple of Drum Cam videos on that page, you have already watched a "Ghost Love Score"- video with Nightwish so it's "risk-free" for you to have a look at that one, to see how Kai plays that song. "Wishmaster" - No, you haven't seen/heard that song yet. The 3rd video is this song that we just have seen so that one too is ok for you to watch. Cheers / B. pearldrum.com/eu/artist/kai-hahto/13196

Awesome!!! Thanks for another fabulous video 😁 I found these guys thanks to Kai being in Nightwish 👍 Recommendation - Eluveitie (pronounced El-Vay-Tee) Rebirth official video!!! They’re Swiss folk (death?) metal with heavy influences from Celtic lore and culture. Rebirth was the Celtic term and belief for death as we know it. There’s two flutes/whistles, violin, hurdy gurdy (harmonizing with distorted electric guitars at times), a harp, and amazing vocals in a driving blast of metal that’ll rearrange a few of your neurons 😁 You won’t be disappointed!!! Thanks again and please keep doing what you’re doing 🤘😎🎸

My own opinion is that there are songwriters and composers. Jari Mäenpää and Tuomas Holopainen belong to the category of composers. I respect them both and I like the music they make. It is often said that Finland is the metal capital of the world. It may not be a mere saying if you look at the numbers. Some years ago, it was calculated how many metal bands are in relation to a million people in each country. Finland's figure was 630, and it was by far the number one! For Sweden, which came in second, the figure was 428. Third place went to Iceland in 341. Fourth was Norway, 299. Fifth Greece 162, sixth Denmark 154 and seventh Estonia 138. Looking at the figures, it is clear that the Nordic countries and Estonia are in the top positions, with Greece being the only representative of southern Europe. And also note how fast the ratios are going down! So, I think it is OK to say that Finland is the metal capital of the world. About 650,000 people live in the Finnish capital, Helsinki. And there are 734 metal bands in Helsinki! (Bands like Wintersun, Amorphis ...) Now if you are thinking of a beginner metal band in Finland, you have to be really skilled and original to get through. You can only get to the top with skills ... Everyone has to fight for a “place in the sun! So weak bands are eliminated who might be able to live in some other country? Of the Wintersun members in this video, Teemu (green Ibanez guitar) and Kai (drums) are also teachers of their own instruments.

I get what you're saying about Kai, and Jari and Kai both have made similar sentiments to his playing, at least in WinterSun. Kai has been playing drums since he was 5 or so, so I'm betting at this point he really doesn't have to think too much about what he is presently doing, except in specific parts. Also, Kai's nickname is "The Machine". And I call bands like WinterSun and Night Wish "Metal Theatre". Now do "Time" from the same session.

@Wintersun, this just might be the best (and honest) review there is. And believe me, I've watched 'em all :D

This is Jari, Jukka (bass) and Timo with Kai. Assim plays Jari's guitar parts so he can concentrate on singing in concert. This is a vid of Kai doing this song as a drum playthrough at Extreme Drummers Universe 2014 kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppaWms9sp7G-ktY.html . It has the song a bit lower and you get to see all his moves, and yeah, shocking how easy he makes it seem. He does double rolls and has to side step to the cymbals pedal for part of it

And Kai is always smiling and interacting. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic music that these guys make....glad you took the time! These songs never feel long to me, in fact I am usually disappointed that they come to an end!

Hi Erik. Big fan of yours here, with his three kids, who are also big fans (just a side note). There is something I have been looking for in reactions to this song and I thought I am going crazy, or it is just not there. Of course it is marvellous and insane, a journey-like into the medieval realm which could be driven back to Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach, and their conpadres (they would be the biggest metal musicians of these times with contemporary instruments on hand). But.... at 6:45 (in your video), up to 6:46 (1 second total), you see the complete opposite of what you are hearing. I am sure you will see it when you are looking for it, but I am in need of an explanation. Based on physics (sound production, propagation, e.a.), you should see Yaari's hand moving the opposite direction, but it's the other way round. Is there some guitar witchcraft witch i am not aware of? Lots of love from Transylvania............. :)

Land of Snow and Sorrow is my favourite Wintersun song. It's beautiful, emotional and heavy all at the same time.

And he's back. Good on ya mate

Talk about a WALL of sound! Amazing stuff

Yeah! Today, on my way home from work, listening to some wintersun, i thought: thats for you! In my mind it was "darkness and frost and time" but sons is great anyway. If u continue with Wintersun, use the same Recordings of Rehersal! Why? Because of the Tone... Its better than on the Album. Thank you, rock on and best wishes from Germany.

This is one of a couple of songs for which I've had to double-check the length. Astounding work, even if they have a TARDIS hidden under the floorboards.

Great video, it’s awesome to hear your thoughts on this song! Time I came out when I was in high school, and I remember driving around blaring the cd in my car. I thought I was so cool (I wasn’t). Kai is definitely a beast of a drummer! If you want another progressive rock/metal band with a beast on the kit (Wintersun is 100% prog, btw), check out Leprous - Slave (Live at Rockefeller). Their drummer, Baard Kolstad, is totally different in style to Kai but also an absolute force.

It's so heavy and emotional in the most beautiful way. Also Jari lead singer is missing half of his lung on one side yet.

Great to watch that reaction video. Wintersun is not my perfect cup of tea, but I can take it. It is just amazing, how skilled these dudes are, all of them. When I listen to them, I get same vibes as you did; they are like Steely Dan with a bit heavier aspect or approach for the composition. This song could be done by SD, it might be a bit different tho :). But, keep on rockin'.

One of the differences between this and Weak Fantasy is that Kai wrote the drum parts for this song. Weak Fantasy even though it was on the first album that Kai played on was most likely written before he joined, as Tuomas was writing during the 2012-2013 tour, so he wouldn't have had as much inout on it. So yeah Jari composes these complex Wintersun songs and sings while playing rhythm guitar. While that in itself is impressive you should rewatch it and take note of how long he is sustaining some of those lines, as he caught TB while in the army and had to have about 20% of one of his lungs removed. Kai has a Licks & Tricks video where he breaks down some of the parts of this this song it is very interesting as well. Also small note this is Jari, Kai, Jukka & Teemu. Asim is not here. I'm not sure when this was recorded because I think Asim was with the band when it was released , or at least by the first time I saw it. Anyway Asim takes over the rhythm guitar part so Jari can concentrate fully on the vocals.

Amazing and interesting analysis and I agree that Kai is a beast and a human metronome and he's not only a world class drummer but a drum teacher too. Kai definitely belongs in a short list talent wise with the likes of drummers like Danny Carey, Mike Portnoy, Mike mangini, among others who belong in rock and metal drumming top ten. His speed and accuracy are second to none really (Danny Carey is a freak of nature too though).

Yes. Whatever band Kai is drumming. He make music flow. Real professional. Listen band called Max On The Rocks where Kai is playing too. Totally different style.

Thanks for the reaction! Fun trivia; singer Jari lost pert of his lung during his time in arm. He had tuberculosis and lost one third of his right (?) lung. SO, his is doing singing 1 and 2/3 of lungs...

I know you are a big Fan from Empuu . I have to take up the cudgels for Empuu, when I see how long the fingers of Jukka, Jari and Temu are and he can play the same with his short fingers, that generates my utmost respect.

An absurd, complicated overload of musical noise. That is one of the many good things of progressive metal. You can stretch it out like there is no tomorrow and be as skillfull and passionate as you can be. Limitlesness sometimes creates freedom and that has become a rare thing in the music industrie. For that matter I like it a lot. Another interesting name is 'Gojira'. It's a French band with a totally different approach. Its considered as one of the best metal bands at this moment. They once blew the guys of Metallica of their socks as a little and unknown supporting act. Gojira is now headlining many festivals. You could say they make innovative metal with the same passion as Wintersun. They have also a very prominent percussionist, last year chosen as the worlds best metal drummer (whatever that means). May be fun to check that band and drummer out some time. If so I recommend 'The Axe' live at Brixton (just one of the many good tracks in their big catalogue). Thank you for your passionate reaction!

Jari Mäenpää Is definitely an incredible composer. As for as vocals, it's even more impressive considering he lost 25% of his lung capacity to tuberculosis And can still perform that well at that intensity level

Brilliant Song... Excellent Reaction..... But, on the talk of Kai, how sad people must of been when Jukka couldnt play with Nightwish any longer, he will be a big big miss, fantastic drummer, one of the best around.., and then they say 'So, we got this guy instead, Kai'.... Jackpot !!!!...

"Transformer of skin-beating." What a classic. I'll make sure Kai hears about this.

My mic is a Shure MV7 using XLR as opposed to USB into the mixer, which also gives me separate mic control to eliminate feedback. What I'm hearing is completely separate than what is going into the recording software, which is set to certain input levels to match the mic with Auto-Normalization and modulation with a built in Pre Amp. I could max my return levels and shake my windows, and you'd never hear it in the recording that I've turned up my volume here. If I'm mixing, I may wear headphones to hear exact points of mix, but when sitting here, I'm surrounded by professional sound. All installed and maintenance by a 50 year radio engineer.

I am very curious on your thoughts about "this whole thing" ....think back before your nightwish encounters ....and now that you have been on a northern European metal journey so to speak ( and been guided to some of the best ) ..but looking at say Arjen and Kai and everyone form TDTWBD ... why are North Americans Missing out on this much talent and content and how do we fix it ? I think you will agree that there is plenty out there worth listening to ....we just never get exposed .

If you like concept albums, after you finish with TIME I, try The Forest Seasons from Wintersun.

If you want to see another talented drummer I will suggest Chris Turner'40 Roll' as a good choice. He's the drummer from Oceans Ate Alaska.... Video is intense.

As several people have already alluded to, close ties between Wintersun and Nightwish.

Jari is perfectionist and that is one reason why it took so long to get that album out. Album version of this song has over 1000 different tracks. It takes ages to mix that together.

I think the count was closer to 1300. And almost 400 tracks are playing at once at one point. It's a really thick tapestry of music.
