i've always heard the term used in sci-fi and RPG fantasy ..
ie. temporal vortex, temporal magic .., etc..
i guess it's just one of those names that would sound 'cool' as a promotional company ..

I think we need to add something like:
4. adj. used in conjunction with Rythm referring to present day promotion team responsible for bringing top trance talent to the tee dot.
haha, how can you tell?
no really, i kept seeing temporal and wondered what it meant. so for once, rather than just accepting the word and my lack of knowledge, i looked it up in the d-word
then i wondered how many other people did not know the definition and wanted to know, so i posted it.
and i like the 4th one, you should submit it to webster's dictionary.

Its true, the name doesn't even have to make sense, like, Temporal Rhytm. Time Rythm. The word rythm already has the word time incorporated in it. If one were to change the meaning of time by the use of the word temporal, the word rythm would not be a valid statement. Therefore a paradox in the statement...
