Listen to the musicPhilosophy
I don't see playing music as entertainment. I see it as connection. Every record I play and every piece of music I create is part of a larger conversation between people, cultures and generations. My work is driven by curiosity, curation and a desire to create and share music that people carry with them long after the last record ends.

Ed Temple
Ed Temple is an Australian producer, DJ, multi-instrumentalist and founder of Templé Musiq, known for his impeccable taste and deeply soulful approach to underground dance music.
More than simply a DJ or producer, Ed has built a reputation as a trusted selector, someone who uncovers forgotten gems, champions future classics and connects dancefloors through music with lasting emotional weight. His sets move effortlessly between disco, boogie, Balearic and rare house cuts, always guided by feeling rather than fashion.
That same philosophy carries into his productions. Combining vintage synthesisers, drum machines and live musicians, his music blends warmth, groove and restraint into records designed to outlive trends. His releases have found homes on Internasjonal, Midnight Riot, Black Riot Records, Inner Tribe, Be Strong Be Free, Sosilly Records and Secrets of Sound, while his own imprint Templé Musiq serves as a platform for timeless music and artists who share the same values.
Alongside performances at Rainbow Serpent, WOMADelaide, Strawberry Fields and Wide Open Space, Ed has toured throughout Japan and Southeast Asia, sharing line-ups with artists including Luke Una, Rick Wilhite, Osunlade, Rahaan, Trus’me, Alkalino and Hidden Spheres. Whether playing an intimate listening bar, a packed club or an international festival, his focus remains the same: creating moments of genuine connection through carefully curated music that moves both body and soul.
In a culture driven by algorithms and constant noise, Ed Temple stands for something increasingly rare: an insatiable pursuit of timeless records and music with soul. Whether unearthing forgotten classics, championing emerging artists or crafting his own productions, his mission remains the same to connect people with music they'll still be listening to decades from now.
