Vate began to make music in 1988. In 1999, after having gathered some music made for private use, he found Internet as a media to show his work. Since then, he has been participating in the Mexican electronic scene, sometimes along many collectives, and sometimes as a stranger.
Vate works with very different genres inside electronic music, among them are ambient, big beat, drum and bass, nortec, sound experimentations, and electro. His remixes and collaborations include artists and groups such as Discos Konfort, Sango Music (Neztic), Binaria, Filtro, Nortec Collective (Fussible), Deus ex Machina , and Minuit Delacroix. Most part of his production (several Albums and EPs) is availale trough a Creative Commons license.
Vate has played live in many events in Mexico City, including Parador Análogo, Tecnogeist 2002 y Máximas texturas (Konfort), also in different Live acts in Mexico and Barcelona, Spain

Disc: $8.38 Epoxia es un proyecto conjunto de Vate y Luar. Tiene sus orígenes en los principios de los noventa. Luar concibió algunas ideas en cuanto a canciones y letras y Vate aportó en el aspecto musical. En un inicio la orientación fue hacia el rock y durante 1997 a 1998 hicieron las grabaciones primitivas de Soberbia Espiritual y El Hombre Nuevo, Luar tocando el bajo y proponiendo la letra y la base de cada pieza y Vate programando y añadiendo la estructura general. El proyecto quedó abandonado y posteriormente, en 2001, Vate retomó pedazos y muestras de esas grabaciones para a manera de remix hacer las versiones que aparecen en este album y que eventualmente se convirtieron en una versión "oficial e instrumental" de las dos canciones primigenias. Más tarde, en 2006, al momento de reeditar y retocar mínimamente estas dos versiones, Vate produjo y añadió Soberbia Espiritual (Remix) y Hombre Soberbia, que está construido a partir de muestras de ambas piezas y que funciona como resumen del proyecto.

Disc: $13.97 33canales is an electronic music project from Minuit De Lacroix and Vate.
In 2002 Minuit de Lacroix lived in Tijuana and Vate in Mexico City.
They began to collaborate trough Internet in a remix exchange that resulted in the Motor EP.
Subsequently, at different times, they both change residence to the city of Barcelona.
Until mid-April 2007 they meet personally and return to the musical collaboration with the “33Canales” project.
33Canales reflects, through musical passages, the complexity of our chaotic social environment and eclectic culture of their native cities: Tijuana, Mexico, and now the contemporary Barcelona, as well as the influence of other cities.
