Host on Vimeo? At least as a backup in case the YT videos get continuously flagged and/or removed.

Vimeo is a good idea.

But yeah its always a surprise what flies on YT and what does not. For instance, Human Porridge is on their. But an album cover gets you taken down? Interesting...

There's also a good chance that certain things just get reported by bitter losers, which I certainly think might have been the case with the Crumer episode.

I think this may be the challenge of some interviews. To ignore certain topics some people wish artists will be confronted, might make be good choice to make it more interesting. However, there will be always people who will be pissed off that none of "hot topics" are discussed.

Some criticism of WCN podcast just published on the Safety Propaganda blog:
QuoteI don't expect that White Centipede Noise show to ever go beyond procedural interviews that are only worth listening to when you like the artist being interviewed
Seems to just be taking a swipe at the show for the pure sake of it? Considering that the WCN shows interviewees do go off on long tangents when they are given the chance to speak. The 'procedural interview' questions are only really asked to facilitate that...
What will Safety Propaganda come up with next?! Haha

Not sure that more space ought to be allotted for a half-sentence worth of criticism. Wasn't that one of the themes running through the podcast? Guess our noble critic missed that.

I don't think he missed it? I think it was expressed that procedural interviews are there, and only noise nerds will like it. Especially those who like the artist in question. He mentioned there is nothing for people who are not into noise. I doubt anyone would oppose that criticism? If similar interview series would be running on theme of reggae, it would be unlikely, you'd listen those simply because interviews are so amazing and insightful?

My assumption is, that WCN podcast is intended to be from "noise nerds to noise nerds", it succeeds in what it is. Done by person who has no education or long former history as "journalist" and people who may have never been interviewed in slightly odd webcam spoken interview. Even possibly using other language than their own. I do prefer that noise interviews are at least somehow connected to noise making. For example, Personal Best, nice magazine sure, but as fresh and unexpected would be to pick up noise guy to discuss.. well lets say V8 motors or ice-coffee, I just.... can't ;)  I may be interested on favorite coffee of W. Herzog, but I don't need full story of noisemakers hobbies that seem to have no connection to their sound. 

For example, Harsh Truths, when it was often expressed that it wanted to go "deeper", I just do not get what is "deeper" about half an hour talk of what your father had as job and what kind of school you went into and if you played soccer as a kid. No no, its not "deep". That's almost always  the same mundane surface level that we all have, and gets interesting only after that is brushed away and we see what other things you are, than just the regular Joe like anyone else.

Procedural interviews, sure, but noise interviews where its more about noise, is nice. (this can be said about upcoming issue of SI too. Many interviews in it are procedural. Some are not. Latter are probably the best, but I like also the standard Q+A based usual topics "you should have" in noise interview..) 
We have seen signs of WCN going beyond prepared template at times and also template changing a bit. It would be nice to see where WCN reaches when its been around same time as Noisextra and Harsh Truths was.

Well no. The quote was fans of the artist.

Vs harsh noise in general.

I think that's a pretty big hair to split and unfortunately I am currently smartphoned into this halfarsed response.

Will flesh out tomorrow ish.

But will add. It wouldn't take a huge density of braincells to immediately recognize the extra-noise appeal of a haters or a smell n quim. For other kinds of artists slightly more attention might be recommended.

Just sayin.

I think the WCN podcast does a great job from the "for noise fans, by noise fan" approach. He keeps the interviews moving and keeps the focus on the interviewee. I think you look at the differences he was able to get out of Paranoid Time vs Jason Crumer - definitely did not seem "procedural" when looking at different interviews. I don't know who would interested outside of the noise scene so to me it's totally fine if they remain "ultra niche" in their content.

I have been a fan of all the artists interviewed so far - I am not into TCU or Koufar (no hate, just not my thing) but I will most likely give the most recent interview a spin just because I enjoy the format... so that will be the first one for me to see if I just "enjoy the interview" without really knowing much about the artist.

brutalist_tapes

it's a great interview imo, very charismatic guy even though i'm not the biggest fan of his music. but now i gotta check out his god is war stuff. i actually liked terror cell unit, tho.

Vimeo is only paid right? I don't think there is a 'free' tier anymore on Vimeo (or maybe only a very limited one). Guess if some of us chime in it's pretty doable but also Vimeo doesn't really have a discovery function like Youtube has (if that work for Noise or not is another discussion on its own).

tried to check that crumer episode, but yt asks for my id or credit card.... what is this? is the video posted somewhere else alternatively?
if anyone has any more tips.

Not really a tip on video hosting but would it be possible to create a e-mail newsletter or sorts with podcast updates so I don't have to watch the topic here on updates? Would like to see that but maybe I'm asking too much.
