At about the same time he began performing live in various bands, soon became a high in demand bassist in the Viennese music-scene and a member of the creative musicians-collective JazzWerkstatt Wien. As a member of the Alex Machacek’s FAT (Abstract Logix), David Helbock-Trio (ACT), and Wolfgang Puschnigs Homegrown (Skylark-Production), among many other groups, Raphael travels all around the world, performing at international Jazz-Festivals and giving masterclasses around the globe.
