Wintersun - Sons Of Winter And Stars (GUITAR COVER)

[@yougotOWENd]

Even tho the vocals are left out, I can still hear Jari sing everything in my head while you play this song :D Awesome cover as always

[@fatherlandchild2780]

I know right :D

[@GarrettJPeters]

Nice! Great job man :D

[@ristridi]

GarrettJPeters thanks! ;)

[@VaL3C]

how to fckin 1:34 sweep picking?

[@XoF3aRxHaT3DxTi]

both are amazing

[@CatherineLee3000]

@@VaL3C , Hell ye!

[@DeadMan1nc]

Man did you really did all this in a one take playing over a backing track ? This cant be real. Its absolutely legendary. No cover of this song can dethrone yours, seriously. Incredible memory and consistency you got there my friend.

[@fatherlandchild2780]

This needs to be the national anthem of Finland

[@benjischober7273]

When I listen to the killer riff I always ask myself what kind of drugs Jari took in order to to invent this rythmic pattern. (Cuz it's so guuud)

[@KingJerbear]

Gorgeous guitar, great tone, and tight playing. Can't ask for much more. Thanks for sharing :)

[@ToastedCigar]

The most accurate full cover of this song on KZbin! Very impressive, man!

[@different2261]

3 people mentionned 1:10 but, OMG, from everything i've heard in my life, from Agalloch to Opeth, 5:33 is the heart of this song to me, this f***ng delicious riff, it's still perfect, congrats to you Ristridi ! thank you for this

[@bryancabrera2702]

Now that's a cover and a fucking half! You played it amazingly and the tone is spot on.

[@Maverick06723]

Cheers thanks I’ll be watching👍

[@oxidhdazoth5214]

[@BW_Drums]

I've been waiting for this day! Fantastic work, man. I can't say enough about your guitar work, keep up the great videos!

[@valentindumitrache9922]

Awesome, good job! I love the picking hand at 9:23 - 9:58, couldn't spot a missing note there. Keep it up!

[@miketrinidad7408]

When wintersun was looking for a new guitarist, i was thinking of you. Damn you're good.

[@Wildlands1212]

[@kris_9672]

Sehr nice!

[@nyarlathotep7274]

Saugut! Nur beim Intro fehlen mir die Leersaiten-Achtel auf der C-Saite :P

[@artojhannula]

This will be my tutorial video for this song for now on. Thanks!

[@ukanotakanakara9496]

Everytime you release a cover that isn't Liquid Crystal Disease, I get sadder and sadder, Mikey. 😭🔫

[@javierargueta7855]

Pedro Pereira We need more Vektor!!!

[@chainkiller999]

The reason i found this channel was the Vektor covers, no guitar in the world beats vektors sci fi sound ;)

[@diegomata6140]

Bro epic video. Could you do a cover of PIERCED FROM WITHIN from SUFFOCATION?

[@Maverick06723]

Sick

[@francoistouchette4954]

Theres an advertising right in the middle of the track that kills all the mood :( ( ...of course Ristridi rocks!)

[@bugrakocak6792]

you finally master it ! :)

[@dawnmettle1429]

Amazing cover!🤘 Where can I find the tabs?

[@carlosplaza709]

good cover!

[@Maverick06723]

I’m having a blast

[@Crazyytrible]

Nice!

[@MrCasquenoir]

Great work! Can you do battle against time?

[@GeorgeHieron]

Very good :)

[@DeathByMetal7]

Hi, awesome cover! Can you make a tutorial on how to play that riff from 1:10? That’s Teemu’s favorite riff and a few exercises to practice that would be amazing!

[@dav_e98]

Make it slower with youtube speed and then find the notes then play it right and with metronome. I did it this way.

[@metalart1143]

Nice cover

[@lordofbible]

@ristridi you are a very young beast

[@chadmarx7718]

That tone is awesome! What is your rig chain?

[@celestialcolosseum]

Which equipment do you use for this tone ? It's simply amazing.

[@Zenhjin]

hey man great video as always, any plans for a future video in which you explain your practice routine? Maybe with some exercises as well? Your technique is top level, the control you have in both hands reminds me of garretjpeters

[@ristridi]

hey, I don't really have a practice routine, I just learn the songs I've wanted to learn for a long time, that's all I'm doing really :) No technique exercises and stuff, just purely learning the stuff I wanna learn. All I'm always suggesting is: Try learning songs by ear and not by tabs, that way you benefit the most from learning songs another person wrote :)

[@Zenhjin]

lol man are u kidding me? wow that's great, i just paly like at least 3-4 hours focusing just on technique. I guess you are also naturally gifted, cheers then mate and thanks for the tips anyway :)

[@ristridi]

no problem ;) but maybe you are more consistent than me then :) I usually need quite a lot of takes to get things "right"

[@Zenhjin]

ye but still i don't have your legato and sweep control so much respect mate. Keep up the good work!

[@daxcorleto2138]

Good job bro!! You are a fucking god.

[@kamuimusackie]

Damn son

[@Maverick06723]

🤟

[@Maverick06723]

Hi🔌🎸🔌🎛🔝🥁

[@marcovillanueva809]

Extremely good cover, awesome band, didnt know them until know, u really are a monster dude, even the berkley guys could be fools compared to you

[@ristridi]

except the berkley guys know alot more bout music than I do haha srsly though, I only know how to play metal stuff really :)

[@marcovillanueva809]

ristridi BTW, dude, you didnt tell me if you like Lazarus A.D., or they are not your thing like Revo, their second album has some really weird shit in it, like something for you

[@ristridi]

haven't really listened to them yet, I'll check them out!

[@Lucaspeta25]

Topen mano toca muito

[@NrGGames]

Dude what pedals or presets do you use for that clean tone??? I need it 😩

[@janusrupnik]

noice!

[@Maverick06723]

👍

[@xEmeritus]

I'm sure you already answered this a few times, but where do you get the backing tracks?

[@lrtt99]

The Crowdfunding isolate tracks I guess

[@ristridi]

I purchased the Forest Package from Wintersun's crowdfunding campaign :) Just like Juan said.

[@Maverick06723]

I saw that taking a break

[@Maverick06723]

I’ve got Jeff Hammonton guitar from slayer hasn’t got a Floyd rose on it it’s got a different tremolo that Jeff used I forgot what it’s called it’s pretty cool though you can lock in a fixed position if you want to it’s in pristine nick it out LTD on the neck but at the back on the head it’s got ESP and on the steel plate at the bottom that holds a neck on has got ESP 690 Australian l paid it’s in pristine Nick I’m pretty wrapped gave me a case and you need special strings for it and he gave me two sets of strings the normal guitar strings they work but they break so you gotta use These are other ones I’ve been playing I’m wrecked I had to tell somebody I’m just by myself

[@anthonymonterosso7472]

How do you even get the riff at 1:13 down so clean???? I've been trying to get it clean for about 3 years now

[@ristridi]

oh it was a nightmare to learn, trust me ;)

[@fatherlandchild2780]

Jari is such a genius

[@sueohlin8128]

Menamore

[@DIABLOinWEHRMACHT]

You make some of the most difficult material to play seem boring to you. Well done. CHEERS!

[@TimeForYourBeatin]

slayyyyyyyyyyyyy

[@gauravbhatt4580]

Senpai can give an advice on how can i train my ears to cover such songs ?

[@ristridi]

start out with rather easy songs and slow them down. and try to force urself to not use tabs if you don'T seem to get anywhere, try as long as possible without tabs :)

[@gauravbhatt4580]

+ristridi thank you so much. btw do you have any plans to release your own compositions in near future ?

[@ristridi]

I'm working on them together with a vocalist and bassist. However I can't give a release date yet for the album, it's still in its making. There will be notifications on my social media channels like this youtube channel and facebook though once there is an end in sight :)

[@gauravbhatt4580]

Your fans are Eagerly waiting for it.. :)

[@michaeljensen5193]

Are you from Germany ?

[@FugalBaboon]

How long did this take to learn lol?

[@anthonystark9390]

Do you learn these by ear or what?

[@ristridi]

yes I do ;)

[@anthonystark9390]

ristridi you God! Hey hey, can we see an updated sea of lies cover or Rammstein with your singing friend? That'd be amazing.

[@Maverick06723]

Some some more support coming I’ll get some albums and a T-shirt soon I play tennis and I gotta pay for coaching and stuff I just bought a new machine a ball machine spin fire 🔥 Pro lithium 2 Pretty cool got some balls and a package for grand Australian

[@Maverick06723]

I know they know everything I watch everything I listen to everything I do I don’t care I’m a legend they might learn something how to live life and enjoy it okay said unfortunately I have a listen 100 years and the way I live life one day works out to be a year so that’s only 100 days

[@Maverick06723]

Say I do my own thing and I enjoy life I watch my videos and I don’t have a worry in the world really make more money but that’s not really a worry because I have money it’s just fun to make more so you don’t have to worry about making it any more but still it’s still fun to make it but it’s fun to lose it like betting on the tennis

[@Maverick06723]

Tennis guitar and keeping fit and healthy I’m just making enough money Marvin Tennis and Qatar and JIM I’m so happy

[@Maverick06723]

Hey man sorry I’m gonna be at skits about the ad can you be careful what adds you put on my moods a bit strange at the moment I’ve got ammonia that’s no fun

[@Maverick06723]

Then again I don’t think I could even make enough money there’s so many Ferraris Lambo‘s and S states Bye you see I guess you can never make enough money so much fun

[@Maverick06723]

So I figure that out the ultimate rich riches is to have everything you need and all the time in the in the world to do what you love doing all the time in the world if you’ve got that you’re the richest person in the world because I’m sure even Roger Federer has Sam worries Then again maybe not it’s Roger Federer
