Thats the thing about work and sleep, they get in the way of important stuff like learning to play final fantasy riff!!! Follow your bliss!!!
Keep at it. Your making TONS of progress.
The traditional eurofolk stuff is all through much of european metal. Listen carefully and you'll heard reworkings of ancient melodies that date back to the first melodies sung in great halls and on long ships. These melodies never die. They just get rerworked
We have our own folk music here in the Americas (Bluegrass/etc.) that is semi peculiar to our shores. Bits of common ballads came and got reworked to be able to be played on instruments that could be tooled by hand by the same items used to make shoes and farm implements. The violin did make its way here as the "fiddle", but such instruments were fragile and rare. Other instruments such as the mandolin arose. It required very little wood to make, almost no metal, and could be strung with cat gut. Farmers make simple instruments. Music survived here as it had in much of Europe through the rise of the Church, in our case mostly protestant vs catholic. Non religious music flourished in the Hills of Kentucky, leading to it's name "Bluegrass" as kentuck is known as the "Bluegrass State" as the long grass in the hills looks blue tipped. I"m actually from Kentucky so I've heard quite a bit of it and I swear to you it's actually SHREDDING done on simple instruments.

I knew Nightwish played folk tunes but I didn't study it to be able to point one out when I hear it. I think your plan is working because it takes some effort to play the overtuned missions
The difference between tier 1 and tier 100 in my videos is immense. I can tell the surge of confidence by just looking!
Dancing Mad from Final Fantasy 6 is another great example of pedal point and reverse pedal point use as well as other techniques but it was composed on baroque convention, so it sounds very classical. I especially like Project Grissini version, many people say it's the only one fully projecting the nihilistic insanity of the character it was composed for. I would love to play it on guitar in the future and the bad news is, it will take a lot of time and regular hard work. But the good news is, the further I progress in the Bootcamp, the less impossible it sounds!
I woke up today around 12pm to get just enough time to prepare for work. Doing a 16h shift tonight, hence I wanted to sleep longer so I don't sleep at work. Hence no video tonight. Maybe I'll shoot one in the morning when I'm back home
