Taivaantuli (epic folk metal)

[@beesechurger2540]

The gods have been observing your journey. They aren't pleased with you meddling with nature, so they have come to deal with you themselves. The sky rumbles with thunder and the ground shakes violently... The gods' wrath is upon you. Akka, Ancient Goddess of Nature has awoken! Ukko, Ancient God of Weather has awoken!

[@baldurwachholz6515]

Mod of redemption

6:30 - 8:07 one of the best guitar riff & solo I've ever heard.

[@carolynnield1994]

An epic fight between fighters dealing with a band of orcs with a mage as back up.

[@JasonStephens7]

This whole album is excellent. Just got the remastered version and listened to it over and over in the car as we moved to our new state. 😊

[@refractedsight9219]

I have listened to this over and over again. Absolutely incredible and complex.

[@fatihyildirim4802]

I didn't investigate my ancestors but I guess i am nordic because when i listen my heart beats 2 times faster. Excellent job Antti.

Absolutely amazing! The first time I listened, I was mildly impressed. But after listening to it again and again, it grew and grew on me. Amazing piece, Antti! It slowly grabs a hold of the listener and then refuses to let go. You never cease to amaze. I am promoting you all over social media. (Hope you don't mind) :)

[@jannehalinen1826]

You only hear music like this, when you are sleeping. This is something out of nowwhere. More music like this, please.

[@davidbleichroth4176]

This reminds me of the journey of a child starting as a padawan and growing into a bad ass paladin. Awesome.

[@im3phirebird81]

I know I commented on this before, but I just have to say how this piece unfolds is truly wonderful!

[@ottimista77]

Few are the things that can enchant me in this world. Two of these are definitely your music and this landscapes, the special atmosphere that these can create. Thank you my friend.

[@Brentastrophe]

Sounds like the introductory theme of a video game, then the final boss's speech right before the ending battle begins with the drums/guitars kicking in.

[@darksun.et.al.99]

oh totally

[@alexday3142]

4:45 - 4:48 sounds to me as if they would sing 'Поведи ни към победа' - Bulgarian for 'Lead us unto victory'. Not that there is some rational reason why the chorus would sing in Bulgarian, it simply sounds so similar.

[@lorantpapp07]

Thorn, bane of the forest has awoken!

[@shadow6480]

Your music is awesome and I hope to hear more of it! It just helped me with writing a paper

[@GnomeDeathKnight]

I admit, when I first saw one of your videos recommended to me I thought "Celtic Metal? What?" And yet it totally works. I really enjoy your songs, and it's always fun to share it with someone else and have them react with "Celtic Metal? What?"

[@josephupchurch7138]

That was awesome! I mean, just awesome. Please, keep making more epic tunes, brotha. We'll keep listening to them. Excellent work, my friend.

[@liamhalliday8437]

@Antti, this and your newest pirate song... I think of the types of epic music I listen to, you're the only one who consistently knocks out incredibly enjoyable hits that are truly epic. Another fantastic bit of music. Thanks!

[@marmagno1743]

Increible, asombroso, esto si es musica del alma

[@matthewmckenna248]

I'm surprised that directors haven't already contacted you. To compose soundtracks for them.

How did you know that directors didn't contact him ? And why would they ? Which type of movies this type of music is suitable for ?

[@faziroth5209]

Maybe for medieval/fantasy themed games

He has made plenty of music for games already. (For example The Nine Parchments music which can be found here on his youtube)

Ahh... The Fire of the skies. How it flows through the vast white of Lappi. The snowy hills carry it forth in the night. The lakes reflect it's glory.

Folk Metal. By Antti Martikainen. Is the right thing. Your music always fills me with energy, and the landscapes are fascinating. By the way, Google translates 'Taivaantuli' both as 'Heavenly fire' and 'The Heaven came'. Anybody knowing Suomi?
