HandOfBlood if you put Wintersun music in your videos or promote them, well...with almost 1M followers you can make so much people know Wintersun. That would be great!
Jari, With this documentary you gain a tremendous amount of respect, of me, and the loyal fans that Wintersun have! You really breath music... I really love music, and I think that understand you (Because my friends don't understand why I gave 50€ to 4 guys that I don't even know...), I can not even imagine the hassle of composing an album alone. It is necessary to have passion for music and for what you do... Respect... Greetings From Portugal (See you guys on Vagos Metal Fest)
Wintersun - Forest Documentary FULL. Order the NEW ALBUM here: www.indiegogo.com/projects/wintersun-crowdfunding Tell us your favorite moments in the documentary? :)
Part 6!! Expendables Choir Session!!! Each new episode of this documentary made me more and more sure that taking place in the crowd-funding was the right thing to do!!!!!! Can't wait to hear the whole album!!!!!!!
I think you can tell how enthusiastic he is when it comes to a vision. But what he needs to do is allow people to help him. I think if he had someone who had the same vision, then albums wouldn't have been this slow
It's amazing and exciting that we, the mortals, can help the GODS in their mission. We hope that you can achieve your goal because we know that we will be rewarded for your touch of grace and divinity made music. LONG LIVE TO WINTERSUN.
Like many people have said already in comments, I say it also. This documentary really brings the depth of Wintersun to a whole new perspective. Like, Jari is really a genious and very wise when you're talking about music. Forest Seasons is very, very good album and I really suggest to watch this documentary whole to get a new view like how beautifully and perfect it seems everything was done. I have watched this many times already and now as I watched it like 7th time, I can say I'm REALLY hyped for the next albums to be incoming. Thank you Jari, and please please dont ever stop. You have THE GIFT. Many people don't have it. Kiitos, ja uutta albumia pihalle äkkiä ny.
I love it, Jari! Thanks for making it one part, although I've watched the separate parts every day. I'd have to say that while I enjoy all the music parts, for me your explanations are the best parts. The transparency as well. You have worked very hard for this!
Hi, Jari! I'm your big fan from Russia. Your music very emotional! Every riff or part of orchestration blows my mind. After I listened Wintersun, I get inspired in me. Thank you for your great works! By the way, I'm guitarist. Inspired by your music, I want to compose my own epic sound and riffs. I do it quite a bit, because Russia have a problem with money and always have to work to survive, but I'm not giving up. Thank you for your motivation for me and all of us. Wintersun is the best band in the world!
To me, this documentary alone is worth the price of admission. New album, remasters of the old albums, live recording, this documentary, individual tracks (invaluable to a guitar player like me) and the list goes on. What the hell do people wan’t more for 50 bucks?
Oli ihana nähdä miten innoissaan olette omasta musiikista, ja kuinka sydänverellä sitä teette. Loneliness -kappale on yksi omista suosikeistani. Kuullessani sen ensimmäisen kerran havahduin jossainvaiheessa siihen miten kyyneleitä vain valuu poskilla. Siitä tuli hirveän elävästi mieleen muutto toiseen kaupunkiin opintojen perässä ja ensimmäisen talven lohduton yksinäisyydentunne.
Jari, I don't care if you don't catch my comment but I have slipped away from metal for quite some time but I have always had a warm spot in my heart for wintersun and your work. It has been a big part of my life, as soon as I get my money together, I will try to pay it forward. You are a most notable apostle in the bible of riffs.
2024 and the work is finished! The release of time 2 is near..a few days of waiting...good things needed time...and excellent things needed time 2....2024 the best year for lovers of hard and beautiful music...😊it is the time 2 enjoy!
Oh my god. The part where he starts singing alone, and then all of a sudden the guitars and shit come in and he starts singing with it, fucking amazing.
I I listen to the song The forest that weeps everyday and night for the past month and singing loud all the lyrics, this song is truly a masterpiece I really love it with my heart and soul thanks for it \m/
It's crazy that it has been four years since the first crowd funding, however I am more than beyond happy that I participated in the first one and I cannot wait for the next one!
yeah, I'm a audio geek, so it makes me excited for the lossless files as well. I mean the production was good on time i but this is a whole another level without sounding overproduced and fitting the music. Rock on! \m/
For a newcomer this documentary gives so much needed information about the crowdfunding campain. I can not believe the ignorance the people that complains about the "greed" of the band has. Damn, 4 albums, special content, isolated tracks *and more* for just 50 dollars? That is a really really great deal! Wish I had known. It takes time (pun not intended) to build a studio, then it takes time to make an album. (And if my google-fu did not fail me, they still fell short on money, so this would add time as well)
Epic documentary ever! Jari, jukka, teemu and kai, u guys are awesome talented musician. Very inspiring documentary, im looking forward to support this album!
you have my full understanding of the situation and i can wait for the album, i understand you have to have your space to record your things for your vision to come true!
Wow what multi talented guys you are! By the half of the video I thought the Forest package is great value, and it kept piling on. I love these behind the scenes videos. It shows a lot and makes me appreciate the albums even more.
I know I might be asking a lot because you have provided quite a lot for crowd funders, but I'm sure what many of the guitar player fans desire above all the goodies are official tabs. I've been wanting to cover some tracks, and I know that's what the isolated tracks are for, but many of us aren't ear trained enough to decipher those tracks and a tab book would really be the icing over the cake. Hell, I don't even need anything else. Include a tier with tabs and I'll ALWAYS go for that tier.
Just coming back here to say WHAT AN ALBUM!! Epic Wintersun perfection, really took me somewhere else like a great concept album should. Loved it on the first listen as well, another sign of a great album! Cheers, from Australia! Worth every cent!
this has to be the best documentary i have seen, it's so great put together, and it really captures the journey they went through to make this album, to see the different layers and stages in this production, how long it took and how much work that was put into this single masterpiece of a damn album.
Ah, I've been a fan of Wintersun ever since their first video "Beyond the Dark Sun" came out! And now, two months after the campaign is closed, I find out about The Forest Package Fund!! I'm so disappointed in myself, that I bought the 2 CD's of The Forest Season + a long-sleeve shirt, but was unaware of The Forest Package Fund!!! If I knew it, I would've gone for it instead... I'm sorry, Jari... But one day I want to have ALL of your music, bro, all of it!! I love you & your music, so very much
A bit late to the party, but what the heck! Awesome documentary! So great to see what you guys went through, making the Forest Seasons album. Kiitos! I just recently discovered Wintersun and it's definitely become one of my all-time favorites in the short time I've had with the band's music. Looking forward to what the future holds and will definitely delve in to the Wintersun albums yet to be released!
People are talking all in support, but you all are well aware all the ideas expressed here are generally seen as taboo or embarrassing by the “music scene”. Jari touches on a lot of things many of us feel, but which get brushed aside or laughed at or dismissed as being “unprofessional”. We could use your attitudes across the board to help change the status quo. It’s great to see the band finally able to accomplish the music on their own terms. 🤘🏻
Jari, I love your music and I didn't had the time to see this documentary until now, I'm so sad for the problems that you have with your productions... Please, keep it on! Wintersun is my favorite band!!
The passion the perfectionist that is Jari as a new fan of wintersun maybe this is why I can’t stop listening to them they are fast becoming my favs and this is against insomnium,Be’lakor,enshrine evt I didn’t think that was possible that’s how blown away I am by these guys it’s just so layered and atmospheric there’s something Jari does that just ads another dimension to melodic metal that’s just perfection!!! ❤️❤️❤️
"Forest Package" was something like "Because you help us to record and release our album We want to give you a deluxe "The Forest Seasons" album and a lot of interesting material"... I want that
Finally some new Wintersun material!! After listening to Wintersun I often have the problem that other music seems boring compared to the majestic and powerful sound of Time... So what can you guys recommend that is somewhat similarly exciting?
The Forest Seasons made me reconsider HARD what i consider to be a great album... is the only example i can think of what a perfect metal album should be, the more i hear it, the more critically i try to view it, perfect is the only word to fit this masterpiece. i dont know how in the hell can you top this shit, but for sure i´m waiting to see.
Insane. This documentary is so lovely done, great job again!
HandOfBlood if you put Wintersun music in your videos or promote them, well...with almost 1M followers you can make so much people know Wintersun. That would be great!
was du bist Wintersun fan? dafür schau ich heut abend zum 5ten mal deine Gothic 1&2 Let's plays durch lol
Wie kommst du denn hier her? :D
Wtf!!! Du hier?!? Hörst du die mittlerweile immernoch?
pro tip: you can watch series at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
Jari,
With this documentary you gain a tremendous amount of respect, of me, and the loyal fans that Wintersun have!
You really breath music... I really love music, and I think that understand you (Because my friends don't understand why I gave 50€ to 4 guys that I don't even know...), I can not even imagine the hassle of composing an album alone.
It is necessary to have passion for music and for what you do...
Respect...

Part 6!! Expendables Choir Session!!! Each new episode of this documentary made me more and more sure that taking place in the crowd-funding was the right thing to do!!!!!! Can't wait to hear the whole album!!!!!!!
All was awesome, but i think fragments with growling Jukka, Jari singing Loneliness and the choirs were my favs
Muustt orrdeeer the FOREST PACKAGE from Indiegogo € 50 Thank You... ¸¸¸¸¸
Seconding the Expendables choir. You Finns are way too good at putting those together.
That was pretty epic indeed! :)
With Jari as a neighbor, hell, sing as much as you want ! not disturbing at all !
i was thinking that too lol
👍🦊🦁Thank you thank you ☆s~
I think you can tell how enthusiastic he is when it comes to a vision. But what he needs to do is allow people to help him. I think if he had someone who had the same vision, then albums wouldn't have been this slow
This band is definitely underrated. This needs millions of views.
Jari's voice when he speaks english is a song to my ears
The best way to end a Monday. DAMN! Cannot wait.
And on the week of it's release, it was the #1 most popular album in Finland. It remained in the top 50 for a full month.
It's amazing and exciting that we, the mortals, can help the GODS in their mission. We hope that you can achieve your goal because we know that we will be rewarded for your touch of grace and divinity made music. LONG LIVE TO WINTERSUN.
dude this is ground breaking u guys made history with this album and what u have offerd to your fans!!! no band from any genra can come close to this.
Ok Jari I'll have dinner with your face in my TV tonight hahaha
Grab some popcorn as well! :)
Yeah for sure!
Caesar Guitar Spain 😂😂😂😂

Carlos Gómez Just ONE beer 😂

How about some Legendary Early Demos? (Pretend i wrote this comment 4 years ago)

The secrets revealed. Hail Wintersun
I would have supported this if i had heard about it :/ Shame the time is over
Jari, I don't care if you don't catch my comment but I have slipped away from metal for quite some time but I have always had a warm spot in my heart for wintersun and your work. It has been a big part of my life, as soon as I get my money together, I will try to pay it forward. You are a most notable apostle in the bible of riffs.
Thank you guys for not giving up
2024 and the work is finished! The release of time 2 is near..a few days of waiting...good things needed time...and excellent things needed time 2....2024 the best year for lovers of hard and beautiful music...😊it is the time 2 enjoy!
That was pure greatness! Thank you for existing wintersun.
Oh my god. The part where he starts singing alone, and then all of a sudden the guitars and shit come in and he starts singing with it, fucking amazing.
jeez from an apartment and it was still great. I could hang the cover art on my walls
1:14:04 wow Jukka's 3 seconds of fame
Man, this documentary is top left a masterpiece itself, let alone the music
I I listen to the song The forest that weeps everyday and night for the past month and singing loud all the lyrics, this song is truly a masterpiece I really love it with my heart and soul thanks for it \m/
Saman Yousefisohi it’s great but loneliness is my favorite
It's crazy that it has been four years since the first crowd funding, however I am more than beyond happy that I participated in the first one and I cannot wait for the next one!
So, almost four years later: Where are the second and the third crowdfunding campaigns? I'm so eager to listen to new Wintersun stuff :)
You had me after I read the first 2 paragraphs of the crowdfunding... ORDERED.
Very nice that you uploaded it (:
I can't fucking wait for the new album, just one more month to go!!!!
I am so excited for you guys!
can't wait to hear more wintersun!
Jari you're the best. Congratulations on everything great you've managed to do so far
1440p? damn Wintersun! you guys rule!
2160p 4k! ;) Some browsers may block 4k.
wow! most tech channels don't output full 4k. You guys rule, the production sounds insane!
Unfortunately the TH-cam audio is compressed and it kills me!!! But you'll get to hear it in full glory soon! ;)
yeah, I'm a audio geek, so it makes me excited for the lossless files as well. I mean the production was good on time i but this is a whole another level without sounding overproduced and fitting the music. Rock on! \m/
The production was terrible on Time 1! That's why people are buying this pack!
The most inspiring heavy metal music documentary I've ever seen!
For a newcomer this documentary gives so much needed information about the crowdfunding campain. I can not believe the ignorance the people that complains about the "greed" of the band has.
Damn, 4 albums, special content, isolated tracks *and more* for just 50 dollars? That is a really really great deal! Wish I had known.
It takes time (pun not intended) to build a studio, then it takes time to make an album. (And if my google-fu did not fail me, they still fell short on money, so this would add time as well)
Yeah people just complain that they got SCAMMED of 50 bucks while they got isolated tracks and remasters and a new album, super weird honestly
this teaches me so much! NEVER give up on something that you REALLY want!
the choir recording looks so fun haha
Total respect to Jari and the guys, they are THE team.
You're a beautiful person, Jari. What an accomplishment this album is. I love everything you've done.
Oh my God, the vocal session with Jukka all I could picture was Nathan Explosion. Especially when he's growling Awakeeen!
You deserve all the good things of this world, your musical contribution is on another level, thanks for all this : ')
This choir gives me goosebumps..
Epic documentary ever! Jari, jukka, teemu and kai, u guys are awesome talented musician. Very inspiring documentary, im looking forward to support this album!
En oo aikasemmin perehtynyt teidän tuotantoon, mutta mahtava tämä uus levy. Hienosti on jaksettu panostaa vielä videoonkin. Keep up the good work.
World class, Jari. Keep up the great work!
Mad respect to the whole band, the perfection you guys put in every song is just crazy! Good job!
you have my full understanding of the situation and i can wait for the album, i understand you have to have your space to record your things for your vision to come true!
How can you dislike a video like this? You are mindblowing Jari.
52:21 = me every time I show friends what I've been working on
Wow what multi talented guys you are! By the half of the video I thought the Forest package is great value, and it kept piling on. I love these behind the scenes videos. It shows a lot and makes me appreciate the albums even more.
I'm very glad that Wintersun is active again! See you in Germany!
Most underrated band ever
Jari this is the best rockumentry ever you explain everything with a lot of meaning
oh my gosh how much goosebumps the 3-man-choir can give a man
Thank you very much, Wintersun!
Mika Hakkinen, Kimi Raikkonen, and Jari Maenpaa is one of reason why i respect the Finn..
WHAT JUST WE NEEDED
i was hoping for something like this... THANKS Jari!!!
My favourite artists of all time
good stuff Jari, looking forward to watching this!
Thanks for doing this
Is there a way to get the demographics of the fans who bought the Forest Package? I would love to see where all the Wintersun fan live!
I found Wintersun when I was 10 and I fell in love with your music God I wish I could meet all of you in person and on stage
I know I might be asking a lot because you have provided quite a lot for crowd funders, but I'm sure what many of the guitar player fans desire above all the goodies are official tabs. I've been wanting to cover some tracks, and I know that's what the isolated tracks are for, but many of us aren't ear trained enough to decipher those tracks and a tab book would really be the icing over the cake. Hell, I don't even need anything else. Include a tier with tabs and I'll ALWAYS go for that tier.
TOTAL RESPECT! \../
You guys Rock!!!
A lot of LOVE from Milan, Italy!
Pls make a documentary about the production hell of time II as well
Just coming back here to say WHAT AN ALBUM!! Epic Wintersun perfection, really took me somewhere else like a great concept album should. Loved it on the first listen as well, another sign of a great album! Cheers, from Australia! Worth every cent!
Very, very nice. After this documentary every fan`s understand and respect you guy`s and your filosofy . Well done.
Jari. We need more of you.
this has to be the best documentary i have seen, it's so great put together, and it really captures the journey they went through to make this album, to see the different layers and stages in this production, how long it took and how much work that was put into this single masterpiece of a damn album.

I'm sorry, Jari... But one day I want to have ALL of your music, bro, all of it!! I love you & your music, so very much
Teodor Kasabov In the next CF you will have revenge! Don't worry man, the people will share all the content the next day of release.
lol, haha, you've got a point, bro! :D
A bit late to the party, but what the heck! Awesome documentary! So great to see what you guys went through, making the Forest Seasons album. Kiitos!
I just recently discovered Wintersun and it's definitely become one of my all-time favorites in the short time I've had with the band's music. Looking forward to what the future holds and will definitely delve in to the Wintersun albums yet to be released!

Si much passion ingot. You can’t help loving this guy 🥹
The passion the perfectionist that is Jari as a new fan of wintersun maybe this is why I can’t stop listening to them they are fast becoming my favs and this is against insomnium,Be’lakor,enshrine evt I didn’t think that was possible that’s how blown away I am by these guys it’s just so layered and atmospheric there’s something Jari does that just ads another dimension to melodic metal that’s just perfection!!! ❤️❤️❤️
"Forest Package" was something like "Because you help us to record and release our album We want to give you a deluxe "The Forest Seasons" album and a lot of interesting material"... I want that
one of the best vocalists I've heard
Kind of funny way of speaking :D facial expressions and hand gestures. It's like he's narrating an intro for a metal album. I like it.
yay!
Why didn't I discover this music sooner. Very impressive!
this makes my dinner way more tasty! :D
Please release time 1 in the non compromised true vision one day, and please make a Time documentary as epic as this
59:16 turned my volume up to 100%. so fucking epic.
I told myself two months ago i wasn't going to buy this, and like an idiot I did. oh well lol
Brilliant..absolute brilliance.
Finally some new Wintersun material!! After listening to Wintersun I often have the problem that other music seems boring compared to the majestic and powerful sound of Time...
So what can you guys recommend that is somewhat similarly exciting?
Betrayal, Justice, Revenge by Kivimetsan Druidi is a pretty awesome album :)
I'd say Insomnium
Jari you are a genious. Please come to Argentina some day!!!
Hah cool to see Jussi in the video. Played WoW with him back like 11 years ago.
Jukka's growl makes me think of the sound of fire
YOU GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE !!❤️
Best Album of 2017 year !
The Forest Seasons made me reconsider HARD what i consider to be a great album... is the only example i can think of what a perfect metal album should be, the more i hear it, the more critically i try to view it, perfect is the only word to fit this masterpiece.
i dont know how in the hell can you top this shit, but for sure i´m waiting to see.
therapist: short haired Jari doesn't exist, he can't hurt you.
Short haired Jari: 1:11:14
Short haired Jari exists now xD
Awe-some \m/
this documentary should have came with the Forest Seasons package
Epic!!!
