NEW CD: Blues Weiser Live and Loud at Pub Dragonfly, Almería 01-09-2023

We finished mixing the Live in Almería record!


And this time it was a little more complicated, because we had some recording errors to overcome.
We had little time to build up, And the stage was still packed with the owner's gear.
With no storage left available, we puzzled til we got it right. 

We had all our gear but last minute we decided to give some of his drums a chance, live that sounded fine, but the recordings told a different story.

The place also had bad ground so that resulted in lots of annoying loud ground noise on all tracks.  And it caused us to be shocked every time we touched the vocal mic with our lips.

All in all, lots of bumps on the road and a complicated mix  procedure later, I think we made the most of what we had!!!! 

But, Jozz wouldn't be himself if he didn't turn all of this upside down and made the gig sound better than ever! Amazing results show that he has truly become both a great mixer and producer!

So, have a listen for yourself, of our 2023 Almería Live & Loud gig!

Enjoy!!! 

Cheers, Nina & Jozz

Update: Another live album coming up & more...

Blues Weiser here with another update! 

In a previous post we stated that Jozz was busy mixing the last live album we recorded on the 1st of September in Almería... He is still working on this and it is going to sound awesome!

He also started working on the Universe is Rigged album, starting with the track "Beggers Can't Be Choosers". He recorded all of the vocals and is almost finished mixing the first track! So we're very excited and looking forward to this!

Then some sad news: After a break of nearly 6 months, due to Mike's operation on his knee last november, we sat together and had to conclude that the three of us are not looking in the same direction and we don't want the same thing in the end... 

So, we will be looking for a new drummer.


We decided that Jozz will be doing all the drums on the new songs. 

Cheers, Nina
