Randolf is a sound innovator with a passion for pushing creative boundaries. He is the kind of drummer who knows how to rock, vibe, swing, or relax into a minimalistic drum part when required.

Billboard Magazine named him "one of today's greatest Latin American drummers." He has also appeared on several TV shows in Venezuela, NET TV (Europe), Rogers TV Univision Canada and Univision Miami. Randolf's style, impeccable timing and solid technique have not only earned him the respect of his fellow musicians, but also the title "The Groove" in the Venezuelan music community. Since moving to Canada, Randolf has risen to the top of the Toronto music scene. His musicianship, versatility and professionalism keep him very busy with a wide variety of bands and Grammy Award-winning musicians and has rapidly become the most sought-after Latin drummer in Toronto.
