Ladies and gentlemen, I'm happy to present to you: The Toontrack Challenge! When the fine folks over at Toontrack realized that the Can You Play This video featuring their Drumkit From Hell EZX had an amazing 8 million + views, they asked me "Can you actually play this?" I answered with the video below. Enjoy!




# All sounds heard in the video come from Toontrack's Superior Drummer, the world's leading drum sampler.

# Dirk Verbeuren is the drummer in Soilwork. Besides recording and performing with renowned artists such as Devin Townsend, Fredrik Thordendal (Meshuggah), Jeff Loomis (ex-Nevermore), Aborted, Powermad and his own bands Bent Sea and Scarve, Verbeuren is also a longtime Toontrack endorsee. He's the drummer behind the Library Of The Extreme series of MIDI packs, and he contributed to the MIDI that comes with The Metal Foundry SDX (an expansion for Superior Drummer).
