'a minimalist masterpiece - a strikingly raw and intimate exploration of love and loss delivered with a level of emotional depth that belies his age.'
​
'A Clairo and Conan Gray indebted Indie-Pop burst'
​

'Temps vocals are airy yet grounded, capturing both the thrill and anxiety of intimacy with a subtle grit that recalls early 2000s indie electronica.'

SUN 13 - HEARTBEAT SINGLE REVIEW
First review for Heartbeat as it was released on the 24th of September.
​
'Miles’ voice is distinctive and emotive, with the word ‘angelic’ popping unbidden into my mind. His tones are well suited to introspective ruminations on life and love and are pitched high in the mix, a trick that only works if the vocals are good enough. They are.'
​
'However this is not a down song, despite the chorus finishing on “the way it hurt when you moved on”, there is a beauty in expressing emotions like this, a catharsis that many people will be able to relate to.'

His voice is extremely powerful and his original songs were so vulnerable and compelling. The room fell silent a few times. With such presence, it’s hard to believe Miles is just starting out. I’m eagerly waiting to hear more from him!'

There were many people in the crowd taking video recordings and even phoning friends to hold the phone up and saying “Listen to this!” Miles sounded on top form.

SUPPORT SLOT, ROUND THE CORNER -LEMAN
'The youngest performer to take to the stage was 16 year old Miles Temp. Wearing a T-shirt that read “A Light In The Dark”, the artist has recently been played on BBC Music Introducing. Opening with the song Polaroid Picture, Miles played a strong confident set to a Crowded Room (which happens to be the current single release). Appropriately Miles finished the set with the track The End, which was released last year. Expect to hear more from this artist in future.'
