Before delving into the realm of music, Flores explored graphic design. While participating in a 2D art class during his high school years, he recognized the latent potential in his unconventional approach to design and endeavored to launch a clothing line. This endeavor, however, met with limited success. This outcome didn't surprise him, as he had trouble forming connections with like-minded people in San Diego when he was growing up in Barrio Logan and Mission Hills. Rather than socialize, Flores spent a lot of time alone in his bedroom working on projects.
Apart from graphic design, Flores also began tinkering with music software during his sophomore year. His commitment to music deepened after discontinuing his clothing line, culminating in the release of his debut album "Care" in November 2016. The album was a creation stemming from his high school years. Comprising 11 tracks, "Care" emanates a tranquil and ethereal ambiance, spanning a concise 20-minute duration. Crafted entirely within the confines of his bedroom, the album epitomizes the essence of bedroom pop, with even vocals recorded through the microphone of his Apple earbuds.
In recent years, TEMPOREX has further solidified his presence with his sophomore album, "Bowling," released after a successful debut with "Care." Despite not having a prominent local following in San Diego, TEMPOREX's music has reached a broader audience through online platforms, contributing to his rise in popularity within the indie music landscape. With a distinct lo-fi sound and a DIY production approach, TEMPOREX continues to make a lasting impact, positioning himself as a promising figure in the indie music realm.
TEMPOREX's musical talents have led to collaborations with notable artists such as The Glitch Mob, Skrillex, Flume, Rustie, and Jai Wolf. His compositions have found their way into diverse television shows and films, such as appearances in Aquaman, The Walking Dead, and Stranger Things.
Don't Care
TEMPOREX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You really help my flowers grow
Daisies and buttercups
Sprout right up when you show up
And now that you′re around again
We have a little time to spend
Alone
Don′t text me i don't even care
And if you want to chatter
Really i have nothing to share
If you trying to reach me
I just won't pick up the phone
′Cause i just want to spend some time alone with her
I don′t care
Please don't text me anymore
I don′t care
Please don't message me no more
I don′t care
Please don't text me anymore
I don′t care
Please don't message me no more
TEMPOREX's song Don't Care talks about a love interest who brings joy and happiness into the singer's life. The lyrics convey that this person makes everything feel more alive and vibrant, including the flowers that grow when they are around. The singer expresses a desire to spend time alone with this special person, and shuts out the rest of the world by ignoring calls and texts from others.
The chorus, "I don't care, please don't text/message me anymore," is repeated multiple times and conveys the singer's willingness to shut out the world in order to be with this person. The lyrics may suggest a sense of longing and desperation to be with that special someone who makes life more colorful and fulfilling. The repetition of the chorus could also imply that the singer is trying to convince themselves that they don't care about anyone else except the object of their affections.
Overall, the song is a beautiful ode to love and relationships, showcasing how someone who truly cares about another person can make even the simplest things in life feel magical.

For me the song kinda ‚reflects' my life. Even though i don't "
really know whats meant with ,these numbers arent going straight up' maybe money is meant with it. Yet i can refer to to the money and not wanting to go to school part. Aswell as the nice parents part. Also i recently got a boyfriend with who everything just feels so unique. Kissing, cuddling, even holding hands makes me feel so secure. He makes me feel secure, in every way vou can feel secure. He makes me feel good about my goofy laugh or my voice cracks. We laugh so much together i can't describe the feeling that i have with him. I don't know if i can call it love yet but i think love is going to be the ending of the story. I really hope he's the one for me. Im going to meet his family soon. Im a bit afraid lol.
