“Hats off to Ru Lemer for incredibly deft, musical and sympathetic production – really great detail, lots of energy and vibe and good clarity in some pretty intense music and complex textures. I know the guys in the band will be knocked out with the finished product.”

Jon Hiseman
1944 -2018
Legendary drummer and Temple Music founder Jon Hiseman tragically passed away in June 2018 after a short battle with an aggressive brain tumour. In his 35 years at the helm Jon was loved by everyone who worked here. He had a knack for making every client feel special and he would work to the same exacting standards on a three minute demo as he would on a landmark album.
Temple Music Studio continues to follow his vision. We no longer have his guiding hand but his spirit is in the wires.
