Dead Weather Machine Re:Heat - Overview

Overview

DWM Re:Heat is defined on its cover as "", since it was created from the same three-minute recording of the Tango2 heater which was used to create DWM. Manifold Records were sufficiently impressed by DWM to commission SleepResearch_Facility to produce a second album in the same style, to be released as a very limited edition (100 copies on CD-R). However, when they received the master disc of DWM Re:Heat, they were "blown away and realized this was too good to let slip into obscurity", and so 1000 CDs were manufactured instead. More information about the creation of both albums can be found in the DWM overview.

Whereas DWM consists of seven tracks, each with its own individual style, DWM Re:Heat is a single long-form piece, which gradually evolves during its 51 minutes, "unconstrained by the notion of using separate tracks to define the project". The album's overall sound is similar to that of DWM, but more minimal and free-flowing, and described by Manifold Records as "slowly changing, deep, meditative drift". As with all of SleepResearch_Facility's music, DWM Re:Heat is very sleep-conducive if played at low volume.

Unlike DWM, which comes in a standard CD jewel case, DWM Re:Heat comes in a flexible transparent plastic sleeve containing a loose cover and two squares of protective black cardboard.
