One of the best solos I've seen. Very original, the running bits, Smooth Criminal/glove bit. Swapping cymbals attacking the bottom of the snare. He's like a mad scientist drummer.

One of Michael's ex-drummers was judging he found out. The dude came up to hit tearing up and told him thank you and Michael would be proud. Ramon is a good dude and he definitely brings his South African vibe to his style

I've watched this clip several times over the last two years. Love this kid's chops and creativity. There's no hiding behind a four piece kit; it's all business. Bravo.

@averagebusinessmen2 10 лет назад

love that he played an incredible solo with 4 drums, shows that it's all about skill

@sjholmes101 10 лет назад

abchead25 On a four piece. He didn't need Terry Bozzio's kit to win.

Spencer Jacob Holmes nah, like every guitar center drummer, it's all gimmicks and showmanship over musicality. he switched his cymbals mid-beat for no reason, he brought out a hidden splash cymbal and failed to play it on 3 separate drums, then actually brought out and put on a glove for Beat It. if Zach Hill or Chris Dave competed, they'd fail. winning the drum-off is all about super rehearsed, choreographed drum solos with lots of show boaty skills and gimmicky crowd interactions.

its almost 2020 and im still!

@Carpenter4134 9 лет назад

One of the most creative drummers I've ever heard. Even the flashy stuff he did had musicality to it, so it wasn't all for looks.

@vvylev 13 лет назад

sick drummer and sick ending, just epic improvisation at the end when the guy told him "close it up" ... very nice !! thumbs up

@drumstud4u 10 лет назад

SMOKING!!! Not only great to listen to, but fun to watch as well...very diverse and musical solo.Loved every bit of it! I can't believe you did all that with a 4pc set....time to go practice...A LOT!

@zaksylvester 10 лет назад

the level of creativity he has in this is unreal! such a great solo.

@robertandrewww Год назад

Been years since I’ve seen this man I’m glad I found it again!

@carletonmartin3004 5 лет назад

To the best I heard yet... Keep up the great work brother.

@m30wfac3 10 лет назад

Omg his skills are soooo good, working on getting that good. Love his technique and how he reacts with the crowd

@aaronvasquez7474 9 лет назад

The best thing about this is that he went single pedal through whole thing!

@PillowMethod 14 лет назад

I am inspired by this solo, everytime I watch it. He is fast and less flash than most. He is actually using the sticks on the Drums, instead of spinning them. I pray that God continues to bless this kid. It is very difficult to get up, in front of all them people, and just break off a drum solo, and cram as much of your best chops into 5 minutes. He tore this up!

@rmirabelle 10 лет назад

lovely - one of the best drum off solos I've heard - super musically played - congrats!

@sidewaysman1 11 лет назад

gotta love that ending

@nano7586 10 лет назад

2:42 Ahah.. it's funny to see that people start clapping right to the rhythm but as soon as it became more complicated they got all confused

@BrianPrince 14 лет назад

THE CLEANEST & MOST ENTERTAINING SOLO I'VE EVER SEEN! This man uses the pole as a part of the drum. He make sounds come from ever part of the drums! Awesome, truly awesome!

@wavoballa 3 года назад

This was special in more ways than one.. probably one of the best performances ever in this comp

@zanglar100 9 лет назад

hes so quick it hurts

@ivanlowjones 10 лет назад

He looks like the kid in the "Boondocks" cartoon.

@upbeatmantis86 13 лет назад

man.. drum off just gets better and better every year.. pools of pure talent out there.. makes me wanna practice harder.. \m/

@speedster06 14 лет назад

i love the creativity, and as drumming being an art, art being self expression, that was very original

@joeystrano3143 7 лет назад

This guy has got groove! I bet he got a 10 in that

@markrodrigue6913 8 лет назад

ice cold! !!! bad dude! !

@onthebridge98 13 лет назад

I love the way he got the crowd into it. Very impressive, and he seems to love what he's doing.

@ThomasaColeman1 5 лет назад

First time seeing this video. Wow. He is very talented. I would love to attend this event.

@tomchristopher71 10 лет назад

Does he play with a group or any artists? Never heard of him but he is very musical. Music is the one language that connects us all.

@TheProgGuy 10 лет назад

He did a few demo's with Memphis Drum Shop. I think he is in a band. Usually these guys in the drum offs aren't known drummers.

@colombiank 10 лет назад

he plays with Israel and new breed. He plays at many guitar centers and stuff

@harrisongdavis 8 лет назад

Guitar Center definateley put in a canned audience track, Im hearing a bunch of "wooos" but the audience is just still... doesnt match up

@DEzzzcheck 14 лет назад

His creativity and use of all surfaces is unbelievable...Insane solo

@bball98038 10 лет назад

Out of every drum off winner, this guy has the fastest hands I've ever seen!

@DrummerJez86 8 лет назад

the drummers actually had to play the drums before the octashit became the focus of these solos ... I miss these older solos ... I keep trying .. and I finally won the store finals .. but I know I have no chance of winning the semifinals without the octapad ... quarter finals are possible

@bishop1228 7 лет назад

He went to 'Sweetest Taboo' tho!!

@BenRdrummer 14 лет назад

i love his experimentation around the kit. switching cymbals and putting a splash on his snare and toms. im glad he won.

@guatemalantomcat 10 лет назад

The world needs more people like him.

@TheMudron 9 лет назад

What amount of practice....

@itecnus3490 8 лет назад

+TheMudron probably at least 10,000 hours of practice. Maybe even more.

@Noa4h 14 лет назад

I think exactly so. This is a great video! I definitely learned a couple tricks that I'd like to try out later this afternoon.

@ZachGatesHere 14 лет назад

Go for it. We all look forward to seeing you winning next year.

@MrTomTurbo 14 лет назад

beast!!! one of the best drumsoli i`ve ever seen!

@musicfactorytv 14 лет назад

Awesome job! Super clean and great dynamics. I think what I enjoyed the most about his playing was that he is very musical. He will be able to go on and play in some great bands which is not always the case with the solo specialists. We were stoked to be there live to see his win!! Danny Thompson

@MasterOrona 13 лет назад

That was awesome, nice new concepts on how to add new sounds.

@Aburnz11 13 лет назад

I watch Ramon's solo all the time.......I love it. Ive seen more of him and Ive gotta say that hes a musical cat. Nice stuff bro!!!! Hopefully and prayerfully I make it this year. Bless ya Ramon Aburnz

@monkeychunkey 14 лет назад

i wouldve never thought of putting a cymbal on the head of the drums. and that little thing when he pumps his arms and does ghost doubles. he's just amazing.

@TheClintMan72 12 лет назад

I've never seen a drummer be so creative. Using cymbals with out stands and play the snare with his hands, Plain awesome(:

Astounding talent. I hope he fulfils this potential by playing with top acts. He's been quiet of late it seems.

@avengerman77 13 лет назад

Probably the most innovative drummer of this competition yet. Even some of the past winners don't come close to his creativity.

@AtlantidaBay 14 лет назад

Don't matter what everyone is saying, but this kid is having time of his life doing it - simply awesome! Always nice to see some fresh blood to the ordinary paradiddle doom.

@nautica7084 5 лет назад

He did 3 things that were original that I haven't thought about doing in the first place.

@PoolhouseProduction 13 лет назад

I have played drums daily since 1970 and I like acoustics bass amps. My friend has played guitar since 1990 and he likes am peg bass amps.The Bass Player has played bass since 1999 and makes the decision of the brand he plays and we respect his decision. Were musicians not judges, same as this drummer. Are we black or white? I bet he don't care. I enjoyed the performance Mr. Sampson, keep on rockin in the free world. Peace out brother.
