Watanabe Kazuki

Kazuki (華月) was the founder, leader & guitarist of Raphael. He composed almost all of Raphael's music. He passed away on the 31st of October, 2000 due to a tranquilizer overdose.

Before he passed away, he formed his side-project Yuri Juujidan. This band consisted of Chris Darkschneider (none other than Kazuki himself) on vocals, Kurt Burton (Kuruto, ex-Pleur) on bass and Mask on guitar. Their music is more electronical, unfortunately they only released one maxi-single and all of the song is instrumental because Kazuki passed away before being able to record the vocal track.
