comPOSERS: The Movie Score Podcast
Hello listeners. As you might have guessed by now, comPOSERS is on a bit of a break. Jay, Aaron and I are all working a lot right now, and I've had a lot of insurance- and physiotherapy-related bullshit on my plate to boot, so we're struggling to find time.

info_outlineRemember when we said we were going on a break?
Krueger lied.
We're stoked to announce a new joint-venture show, created collaboratively with the Reverend Brent Chittenden of Darkside Radio and the True North Nerds podcast.
Each month, Krueger and Brent will dive into music you haven't heard that you should be listening to. Moving forward the episodes will appear exclusively on the True North Nerds and comPOSERS Patreons (yes, we're still flogging that particular deceased horse), but this one's just for you, dear listener.
This week: Canadian bands you should be listening to!
