So many people name Steve Vai, Slash and others when they are being asked who they were inspired by. I am officially putting Teemu on top of my list.
Me too holy shit hes amazing
Well it's because they're known and he is not. If it wasn't for Troy and YT I'd have never discovered him.
@@chrisking6695 just give a try to Wintersun band and Jari Maempaa. YOu have a lot of videos of Jari playing the guitar. He is the genius behind these songs
@@juanrodm6406 I like Teemu's playing more. It's his picking technique that I like. My technique is developing I'm the same direction so it's only natural for me to analyze Teemu more.
Thank you for loving my career
3:55 Troy: "and that's not easy, obviously, doing that."
Teemu: "ummm..."
LOL
For him it is 😂
Hahahah
Not just fast.....so smooth and accurate. additionally bending and vibrato is perfect....real pro.
Yes! Very tasteful shredding! Somewhere in between Jason Becker and Marty Friedman in terms of melody, technical ability and taste!
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
@@juliotorres6868 I've just watched that guys attempt. Good, but he played tapping part and shredding at the end a bit sloppy.
@@juliotorres6868 Do you mean this: ruclips.net/video/duCOgHDnoJI/видео.html ?
And clean!!! So clean!!! Not a single sound not meant to be heard!!!
Teemu is an amazing guitarist. I am just totally blown away at his skill. His tone is absolutely perfect. Obviously one of the best players on earth.
Will always love Jari being lead but I'm so happy that role has shifted to Teemu, he can truly showcase his talent now.
Absolutely perfect. And all the other Wintersun members are just as talented as this guy. Such an underrated band.
Evil Giggles agree.
Evil Giggles teemu is just spectacular and a bit better than the rest imo
Too bad they get such little input. I'm not sure they're underrated at all, maybe a bit overrated. Latest album is kinda meh, wish Jari would write some shorter songs again.
The latest album was made solely for the crowdfunding thing to raise money for the sauna err i mean studio they wanted to build. Of course he will go back to writing shorter songs....just wait for Time II and beyond.
I'm going to have to disagree with all three of you on some things.
@fazeel ashraf Teemu IS spectacular, one of the finest guitarists I've ever seen. But Jari is also an excellent guitarist, an absolutely incredible vocalist and a mastermind composer. Kai Hahto is one of the best Metal drummers of our era, and consistently referred to as "Finland's best drummer" (obviously up for debate but that has to say something) and is the go-to guy for Metal bands that need drum work done (e.g. Nightwish). Jukka, whilst not only being a fantastic and unique bass player also has some of the best low growls I've ever heard. This truly is a band of musicians that are all masters of their chosen instruments.
@martsum Their latest album is entirely up to interpretation. It's definitely an album that needs to be understood and listened to more than once or twice. Also, you wishing they would make their songs shorter again is entirely based on opinion. I love long songs and much prefer it. To the point where I would call anything under 6 minutes "a short song".
@Evil Giggles The Forest Seasons wasn't necessarily made solely for the crowdfunding. Jari had already written and completed one of the songs and realised that he had ideas for similar songs before he had even considered doing a crowdfunding project. He realised that by finishing and recording these songs he could turn it into its own album and do a crowdfunding event.
Holy Shit Teemu... That's the cleanest Winter Madness Solo I've ever heard in my whole life.
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
@@juliotorres6868 na, Teemu is cleaner.
@@juliotorres6868 Τeemu (and Jari, who wrote the parts anyway) is cleaner.
Thank you for loving my career
I can attest that he is a great teacher. I got one lesson from him on tour and he was immediately able to pickup on my bad habits and taught me enough in one hour that I significantly increased my skill even after 20 years of playing.
Totally agree, i got a lesson too and he picked up on stuff no other teacher has noticed, really made a difference!
Likewise. Took lessons in San Francisco in 2019. His slanting picking style and wrist work is impeccable
@@akiller28 Wish I could get a lesson with him now!
@@PickOfDestiny89give him a call! The worst he can give you is a no😊😊
I've wanted to watch Teemu play the Winter Madness solo for ages!
Wish granted! His playing is so effing smooth and clean. What a joy to hear & see.
I could just watch this man play for hours. So smooth, so accurate, so graceful, so tasty.
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
I think he has the greatest picking control of any of the guitarists you've featured. Just immaculate.
Checkout anton oparin
Teemu is amazing. He plays the solo even tighter and more precise than on the record. Kudos
The solo on the record is played by Jari.
I thought Jari was a guitar god. But this guy like... beyond god, lol. It's crazy that they have two such amazing players in the same band.
They're both gods, but of a different...divinity, I guess
The solo in Winter Madness is one of my all time favorite metal solo! Amazing... wish I could play it.
Its my all time favorite.
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
Best upload so far. Teemu is amazing and this is one of the best solo written by Jari
It's insane how he articulates his notes in sweeping.. NEVER ever heared someone else do that so clear and good.
Teemu is such a wonderful teacher, guitarplayer ánd a wonderful guy!! So glad he plays with my favorite band Wintersun!
What i expected to happen on 3:12
Troy - "what is that from?"
Teemu - "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY STUDIO ! ! ! "
:DDDDD
Teemu is as clean and flawless of a player as they come. Great vid, thanks for posting
Thank you for the beautiful words
This for me is the absolute best you can get in terms of pick control, technique, speed, agility, dexterity, just the absolute perfect solo!
I literally have never seen a guitarist with that much control over his right hand while playing. Every single motion is perfect while still delivering the punch on the strings that you need to play metal. (Otherwise you wont sound as aggressive and the tone could get muddy)
Thats a problem I have, either I play perfectly clean but with very nondefined and nonaggressive tone, or I play with really aggressive mean tone but dont play as clean and sadly hit other strings and dont time it as perfectly.
Will try to get a hold of this interview, for sure!
3:55
- And that's not easy
-ehm thats the basics to me scrub
ferevon Lol
omg LOL
Lmao , scrub 😂
Whoa x 10
Lute teacher here: This is my new RUclips favourite video. There's something special about this guy!
Teemu is such a tasteful and precise player. Daaaaaaaamn!
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
Thank you
Goddamn, I've been waiting ages for this.
What a great way to kick the weekend off - thank you, Obi-wan Grady!
Don't thank me, thank Teemu for doing this. He's got every Wintersun eyeball in the world on him, waiting to hear these solos. I couldn't handle that kind of pressure. Hats off to him.
ehhh. Easy when you're a damn god like Teemu. He makes everything look so easy and plays so clean, flawless.
Troy Grady, you're being too modest - as usual.
And Teemu seems almost too humble himself.
I had only heard of Teemu in an earlier Troy Grady video -- one with super clean seventh chord sweeps. And I'm really impressed with how clearly he explained that picking technique -- kind of like a strumming pattern except with one note.
+Michael Gainey Teemu is an awesome teacher and has a real knack for figuring out ways of communicating what he does!
I actually prefer this performance over the album version. It's just so naked and got nothing to hide!
dude i'm in love with that tone
Rare to see someone nail the Winter Madness solo 100% live :D Teemu is a god.
I just saw them live a week ago, it sounded exactly the same. His guitarplaying is absolutely stunning.
@@rosvokersantti when you watch him live in person , its just jaw dropping xD
Missä näit?
If you watch old live Wintersun videos, not even Jari can nail it 100% live 🤷♂️
My goodness! Teemu is flawless, brings tears to my eyes! Truly under rated!
Absolutely amazing! Teems is a badass! I've been a wintersun fan since September '05, one of the most underrated metal bands on earth. Meaning outside of a group of metal fans no one has heard of them, and the ones that have half of them give them crap. Those people are usually narrow minded and cynical. WinterSun is fucking amazing!
^ *Teemu* (damn autocorrect)
Best guitar player i heard ever!!
that tone omg, how ???
Axe-Fx - a simulated a Mesa patch, I think
The hands of Teemu
its..just....GODLY
@@jaripuurunen1742 cmon is not just the hands haaha the patch itself is incredible.
Troy Grady I need to find it it’s so perfect
I think this is amongst the most impressive playthroughs I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot. I mean, A LOOOT!!!
soo agreed!
Thank you for loving my career
Damn
Maybe it's time for me to buy some wintersun cds
I'd love to see an interview with Jari as well.
Teemu is a monster
An undeniable and absolute Finnish Guitar Machine
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
@@juliotorres6868 I think that guy's picking is not as incisive as Teemu's
Really
Love his technique. Awesome sound and melody together. Wintersun is an amazing band and all its members are great musicians esp Teemu and Asim
This is just the thing I wanted. I've been learning the solo recently and some things are just too difficult to learn from the album. Thank you so much, Troy!
Thank you for loving my career
Have no words...fantastic player you are Teemu... Wish i found musicians like you here in Portugal to do works like yours..\m/..the Guitar is a complete world...
Seems like such a nice chilled guy! In fact all the band seem really down to Earth
2:26 Jesus.. this guy is a machine.
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
Just saw this right now...you can actually see how Jari shaped him to perfection...discipline, precision, fluid movement and correct dynamics...hopefully Jari gives Teemu a chance to create his solo (if he didnt already) in Time II that would be really amazing
Yes!! This is the type of content I've been waiting for! Shred guitar is my life.
Great to see Ibanez has given him another LACS even though he's not super famous! He really deserves it!
Also, thank you for keeping the videos of high quality, Troy! It's rather rare to see editing of this quality on RUclips - especially for a free video!
Good job, man!
I have completely overlooked how good he is. Despite listening to Wintersun for over 10 years now.
Also, I love that shirt!!
Thank you for the beautiful words
Been Waiting months for this video finally
dunno why, but this video somehow massively improved my picking, thanks alot for your content
Killer intro. Killer tone.
Watch the Gabriel Cyr rendition, and tell me what you think, what I think is Gabriel's guitar tone and picking is a little bit cleaner, but this only my opinion of course.
@@juliotorres6868 haven't you trolled enough?
@@Nasosdag Sorry, I think somebody used my account, I do not even know What my comments are.
just saw teen's video on Instagram months ago of this and came to find it here on your channel. lo and behold you've only now just uploaded it what luck!!
Damn I didn’t know you did interviews w metal guys like this too Ive loved this album for years
Teemu is extremely talented guitar player,its so satisfying watching him play.
Thank you for loving my career
@@teemumantysaari1643 you are easily my top favourite guitarist.
Thanks Teemu and Troy for doing this video! Teemu is just amazing and would be great teacher too! :)
My laptop just cleaned itself up after watching this. Such a clean performance!
dude
what the fuck...just found out about this guy.
I listen to wintersun and not really into them, but god damn his playing is awesome!
neoclassical styling with the control and phrasing of a prog metal guy. fucking inspiring!
Would love to see Andy James!!! An upward pickslanting beast! I am biased, being an upward pickslanter myself. Thanks for the new content @Troy Grady
Great video! Looks like I'll be picking this interview up.
P.S. I dig the Yars shirt, Troy!
Teemu is such an amazing player.
Thank you for loving my career
HOW IS THIS SO CLEAN?! AGH!
Fuck me these Wintersun guys are fucking insane...
@Troy Grady Would love to see Rick Graham or Nick Johnston in the future.
FunctionONE yes. hell yes. I'd probably add jason richardson in there too
Man, I'd love to see rick graham too
And Andy James!!!
And Takayoshi Ohmura
And Tony Macalpine
put aside his amazing playing the tone is incredible....
Sounds like both rhythm, and lead. Badass!
First I’ve heard of Teemu and I’m a fan!
That left hand technique is mesmerizing.....makes it look "easy"
I'd be easy for me on Guitar Hero sure, but the right hand is what makes it all work which is less flashy but more important imo....hence basically this whole channel haha, right?
just fantastic guitar playing. the way it should be done.
i'm sure i'm putting more effort in playing smoke on the water than teemu did here?
Wintersun is fucking nuts. That solo is amazingly sick.
Shit, a Winter Madness close-up! Thanks a ton!
At 2:26 that is one of the coolest riffs I have ever heard.
Sons of Winter and Stars
A cartoon version of Jason becker would be a great tribute to him and a tony macalpine interview close up camera etc would be the best. Great work troy.
So underrated! I find myself very very ashamed that i just heard of Teemu and Wintersun. Kulle!
He's picking techniques is really awesome!
What I noticed from this video:
Teemu has "neutral wrist" during normal work, but pronates a bit to catch his upward pickslanthing. But when he kicks into downward pickslanting overdrive, he supinates, flexes wrist in, and looks more like a gypsy. Amazing how you can so fluidly switch between such different methods.
That tone thou... Fuck. Awesome video!
The cleaness and musicality,real professional..
Ain't no human. Neither he, nor the other Wintersun guys.
apart from flawless technique, this is a very well put together, creative solo at the begining, next level shit
Thank you, this is the best birthday gift so far :D
@Troy
Just a suggestion: I would LOVE to see a in depth study of the vectors of travel of the pick itself in all 3 dimensions
1. Angles and distance of travel across strings relative to the pick, and relative to the string.
2. Depths of travel
3. Distances of travel.
4. where does the string impact the pick on both up and downstrokes during both downward pickslants, and upward pickslants?
I find in my own playing, these vectors ultimately change everything about how to play, and how the music sounds. For Example: a 45degree swipe accross the string, leaves you in a bad position on the upstroke. So...at the end of the day, if leave anatomy and physiology out of all of this, what is the PICK actually doing...what are the optimal angles and vectors of the pick travel itself?
I would love to do this myself, but .... while you are at all this... might do that too yo!
it's great that the interviewer really knows his shit- good stuff
Absolutely monstrous. God damn he's so fucking good
I admire your work Troy.. Learned a lot with your videos..\m/
THIS MAKES YOU QUIT GUITAR PLAYING FASTER THAN THE SWEEP PICKINGS IN THIS VIDEO
rimythemurloc It can also motivate you. Role models have this effect, ideally. But yeah, it must be FKING hard to become as good as him and probably takes so much time and effort..
@@Lightnings Its nearly impossible. I mean he has all the time in the world and gets paid for it.
Teemu is not human...no way lol. That right hand...incredible.
i love this song especially the originally version
Breandon ellis and teemu i think have tastiest shredding in metal
This technique is really really helpful to play Paul Gilbert songs. If you can handle Teemus technique, you can handle technical difficulties and fuzz universe.
Please get Michael Romeo from Symphony X to do an interview.
Yes please!!!!
He plays like Yngwie and Joe Stump, or using economy picking. It'll be redundant, like interviewing PG and JP at the same time, almost identical picking style.
@@iganpparamarta8813 JP?
@@DillonBerkley John Petrucci. As the guy above said, he has a very similar alternate picking style to Paul.
@@andyshreds573 eh, I'd be willing wager that Paul's picking hand is much more intricate than Petrucci with how developed his two-way pick slanting is. Also, Romeo has an equal amount of influence from Shawn Lane who I think has a different approach from Yngwie. Yngwie has an economy picking system that is unique to him as Chris Brooks extensively covers in his book Neoclassical Speed Strategies for Guitar.
If Beethoven was alive today he'd be proud of this
That intro riff is awesome
I knew he was good, just by listening to the albums, but somehow watching him performing so smoothly seems to be even more impressive. Jesuschrist!
He doesnt play on the albums.
Teemu is a Beast... Love him!!! 🤘🏼🎸
Thank you for the beautiful words
Ok Troy, just for having Teemu on (and having some great technique videos) I'll subscribe even though you look a bit like a young Sean Hannity..lol
Awesome!!
Lovely guitar player, incredible fingering
Best guitar solo of all time
This guy is hella smooth!
Wow this guy is pretty skilled player, i could see him playing in a metal band if he tried to join one.. maybe one day!
He is playing in Wintersun
Now Teemu is the master
