Temple City is the intercontinental, Internet collaboration of Dietmar Quistorf and Christoph Kolodziej. Working over a 6,000-mile wire between L.A, California, and Frankfurt, Germany, Kolodziej and Quistorf pass songs back and forth until they reach the sound that's Temple City's own a unique cross of Kraftwerk and Mother Nature, with a dash of sci-fi. Their lyrics, written in the wee hours of different time zones, range from the hard stuff of geology to the gossamer of dreams.
