Welcome to "comPOSERS The Movie Score Podcast", where three old musician friends of dubious talent enjoy some movie-themed drinks while discussing film scores and the films they're in. Our goal is to find the perfect movie score, and our journey takes us some really weird places.
Join us on this bizarre musical trek to...somewhere? Follow us on the socials @composerspod, then sit back, pour yourself an adult beverage and enjoy some comPOSING.

MOONRAKER (1979) - Series 15: Episode 222
You thought "oh no, March is over and they haven't released the last of Jay's Bond", didn't you? Well April Fool's, you maniacs: now have a Moonraker (with music by the OG, John Barry)!
-
TOMORROW NEVER DIES (1997) - Series 15: Episode 221
Bond. JAY'S Bond. Yes, it's our funniest comPOSER's 40th birthday, so we're giving him both episodes this month, which means of course two weeks of gadgets, girls and guns (and martinis, but it doesn't fit the alliteration). First up: it's Tomorrow Never Dies with music by the incomparable David Arnold!

WEEKEND UPDATE
It's a Krueger weekend update! Give it a listen! And sorry there's no episode.
-
THE EDGE (1997) - Series 15: Episode 220
HORNSMITH continues this week as we revisit a perhaps-underappreciated score from the golden age of thrillers. It's Hannibal Lector versus a motherfucking bear in 1997's The Edge with music by King Jerry Goldsmith!
-
BRAVEHEART (1995) - Series 15: Episode 219
HORNSMITH IS UPON US! This month we're covering one film each from the electrifying compositional duo brought together by the power of Jerry Goldsmith's daughter. This week: 1995's epic historical drama about a time when Mel Gibson was a sought-after actor. It's Braveheart with music by the inestimable James "Horny" Horner!
-
STAR WARS II: ATTACK OF THE CLONES (2002) - Series 15: Episode 218
Time to grow a stupid braid and murder some Tuskens, everybody, because Johnuary continues with our second foray into the much-maligned prequel trilogy. It's Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, with music by Old Whatsisname.
NOTE: This was supposed to go up last week, but I got screwed up by the new "two episodes a month" schedule and forgot. Sorry everybody. Tune in next week for us being back on schedule. -Krueger
Customer Reviews
Hilarious, informative and sometimes baffling
A "drinking podcast discussing movie scores" - this beauty is hosted by three of the most nauseatingly nice white dudes and looks at the scores of the big screen. One can't speak, one can't be serious about anything and then there's Alex. They can be overly critical for three nerds in a basement and hiding from their spouses (now in insolation starring at a screen) but they're HUGELY entertaining, funny, and very engaging. It's like being from a small town and going home for the Thanksgiving and sitting around a table listing to a bunch of drunk a**holes try to sound intelligent at 2am. Except it's on the internet. HIGHLY recommend.
Regrets
I take back the slanderous comments I made when this show first started. Alex has learned a lot and he makes the show better. 10/10
Fun and informative
The hosts of this podcast are self proclaimed posers but I think their collective knowledge of composers, instruments and music composition give a cool new perspective on some of my favourite movies.
