TATE SEDAR is a reflective, driven musician looking to redefine what electronic music can be. After his global performance on the 2020 Insomniac Discovery Project: EDC Virtual Rave-a-Thon, he received a slot on the Insomniac Artists roster and accumulated over 5.7m plays alone in 2023. He has also mixed alongside Dada Life, Don Diablo, Cash Cash, Borgeous, Breathe Carolina, Wolfgang Gartner, Disco Lines, Henry Fong, NIIKO x SWAE, DallasK and Blake Webber at famed venues such as Academy LA and Avalon Hollywood. In 2024, TATE embarks on a new sound with ‘post-EDM,’ a progressive style of electronic music that incorporates analog and digital instruments. This chapter was fated - inspired by Motown, disco, hip-hop and rock as a kid. 

​

Since the start of the decade, SEDAR has been featured in top EDM blogs, interviews and radio with notable attention on EDM.com & airwaves for “Heaven” as well as coverage on Dancing Astronaut for "Find a Way" - a sonic retrospective on his career so far that has 104k music video views across multiple platforms. As an artist, he also seeks meaning in electronic music with his official remix of “Hero” by Empire’s Terrell Carter (highlighting Carter’s lyrics on civil rights) and his edit & video of Justin Bieber’s “Hold On”, capturing footage and aid for victims of the Russo-Ukrainian war. 

​

Born & raised in San Francisco, SEDAR grew up on both coasts of the US and in the UK. He discovered electronic music through his parents’ music collection and the arcade phenomena Dance Dance Revolution. He began teaching himself production at 10, attended Point Blank Music School in London for a course on DJing, and focused his high school & college education on music business, production, engineering and songwriting. He currently resides in Hollywood (LA) and is ready to share his next post-EDM records this year - all the while continuing to look for the perfect hoodie [to rock on stage].
