Artist History
The history of the project of Vate as musical public proposal is relatively recent, however, the technical and musical development has occurred since 1988. It began as a mere experimentation and game in a humble keyboard until the use in 1999 of Internet as window to expose the music created especially in the last 2 years. Obviously it is aimed to generate a musical style that takes the best of diverse musical and artistic streams. Electronic music is the main axis of this project and is supported by ideas by other genres such as progressive rock or ethnic music. However it is sought to also generate a very subtle criticism to the present environment of the human being. This is the case of the track "Country not for you" in which distorted the speeches from Kennedy and Nixon in order insinuate the true intentions of their governments. In " Seis Segadoras Verdes", which comes accompanied by the story of the same name, describes an utopist vision of Mexico.La historia del proyecto de Vate como propuesta musical pública es relativamente reciente, sin embargo, el desarrollo tanto técnico como musical se ha dado desde 1988.
