Heavy Water Factory

Band,
Electronic
A.k.a. Jesse McClear, William West & Scott Hixon.

Heavy Water Factory was formed in late 1994 by Jesse McClear and William West. They sought to unite a musical vision that combined musical elements of ambience and techno-industrial noise to create an expressive sound all of their own. Heavy Water Factory immediately began to write new material and perform live at venues such as Industry, the Majestic and the State Theater. Their shows immediately attracted new fans of every age. The realization soon came, that it was time for HWF to put-out a release of some sort. West and McClear sought out the help of noted techno producer Mike Clark, to mix and record five tracks at Funhouse Studios. After completing the tracks at Funhouse, the duo decided to finish the remainder of the tracks themselves. Once the recordings were complete, they were then mastered by friends of the band Craig Frankenstein and Mitch C-Quist. Having the CD completed and ready for release, Heavy Water Factory decided to add, vocalist/guitarist, Scott Hixon to the line up in order to provide the support necessary to perform the complex material live. Hixon has also become an important factor in the generation of new songs. Heavy Water Factory has performed with a number of national acts, including: Battery and Deathline Int.(from COP International), Hate Dept., Sister Machine Gun, Evil Mothers and Mentallo & The Fixer.
