from what I can tell by everyone here, he was a really cool dude. may he rest in peace! |

I am still in complete shock over this news. Raul was the nicest guy. He would go out of his way for any of his friends.
I will never forget the times we hung together here in LA or at WMC. I am going to miss him :(
May he RIP. |

I was absolutely shocked to find out on Friday afternoon about the death of Raul. Although I was not friends with Raul (more like an acquaintance), I always thought well of him.
DarkAngel was one of the first FLTAs that I ever met in my first visit to Miami, during the TA dinner that took place at Porcao (fancy Brazilian restaurant), before Tiesto's set at Space (March 2004). He stood out with his black clothing, his sense of humor, and his friendly attitude. He was definitely one of the most outstanding and interesting characters from the TA forums.
I always enjoyed reading his excellent reviews of trance events in Miami and elsewhere, especially his reviews of ones such as Ferry Corsten at Space (June 2005). I was always absolutely amused by his sense of humor on his posts. I definitely remember he was not a fan of house music (most definitely not a fan of Sander van Kleinenberg). Didn't he used to call house music "timmie"? I also remember he was not a fan of Matthew Dekay. Didn't he used to call him Tooth Dekay? What else? I also remember his enthusiasm for Ferry Corsten, Sander van Doorn (whom he called "the good Sander" in his MySpace page), and Rank-1...among many others.
I caught up with DA once again during WMC 2007, in what would turn out to be the last time I would ever see him. I hung out with Raul, along with my friend Christie, over at Twilo for the Armada All Night party for a good while. That night was an absolute blast! We were among the ones that stuck around till the very end (almost 9AM?), to experience the awesomeness of Rank-1's set!
I chatted with DA on and off on MySpace until he dropped out. I remember the last time I chatted with DA on TA was sometime after WMC 2008 (April 2008). Unfortunately, I lost touch with him, and I had not kept up with TranceAddict since summer 2008.
It is absolutely tragic that Raul left this world so soon! Sorry if my post seemed a bit lengthy. I cannot even begin to understand the pain that would drive someone to commit suicide.
I truly hope that Raul has found eternal peace and happiness. My sympathies go out to his family and to his friends.
Rest In Peace. |

i will be seeing Piet from Rank 1 tonight and Raul and Piet were friendly, they had him as one of their top friends on Myspace for a long time. i will pass this sad news on to Piet when i see him. he really loved their productions and DA was one of the reasons i gave Rank 1 a chance after an AVB set one night in LA and i was so glad i did. i ended up loving them and raul and i bonded over them from that night on.
still can't believe this :( |
