ASMR - Sugar Dealer Roleplay (The Dubai Shipment)

Welcome back everyone!!! My sincerest apologies for extending my usual 6 week break to I don't even know how many weeks :D As some of you will have seen from my community post, my partner and I were suffering from some pretty aggressive cases of Covid19. The good news is that I am now testing negative :D Unfortunately, the infection in my lungs has left me with a bit of a lazy cough and as such, my voice is a little raspy in this video (though it sounds infinitely better than it did prior :D).
In regards to the video itself, it didn't reallyyyy turn out as I wanted it to. I had intended to have the Marina as the backdrop for the whole video, however the reflection of the lighting in the window just made it impossible sadly. Leaving the door open wasn't an option either due to the loud noise so instead, I incorporated a few minutes of footage so you can hold that in your mind as you're falling asleep if you want :D
To anyone who made it this far, thank you so much and I really missed you all! Please continue to take care of yourselves and anyone else you can spare the resources to help too :D
Matt

ASMR is essentially a made up acronym (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response ) used to describe that tingly / buzzing feeling you may have experienced in your head or running down your spine. The sensation can be triggered by personal attention, tutorials, sounds etc. If you are discovering "ASMR" videos for the first time, their primary purpose is just to relax and almost always to send the listener to sleep.

It's been a long time indeed, glad you're feeling better man! Also I didn't expect the Dutch to be name-dropped that quickly 😂 Also also I don't know if it's just that I haven't heard you in a bit but I'm loving this video!

[@buttertoto378]

You also dropped an asmr two great asmrtists think alike I suppose

[@ArticulateDesignASMR]

So good to see you buddy :D. Yeah it's literally my first video this year haha. Hopefully back to something half way consistent now though

[@theroadstopshere]

Something about the way the opening scene was shot is just charming: the clearly hand-held camera, the effort put into getting ASMR and the rp right while someone else holds the camera (and probably tries not to laugh), the gorgeous view, the mix of the classy room and camera/video equipment cables still a little messy... it's lovely. And 50+ minutes? As you're still on the recovery warpath from COVID? Goodness gracious, sir, that is a ton of work and time to put in as you're still getting better! You have our gratitude, for sure, but be sure to take care of yourselves!

[@mullallylally]

Articulate is the world's most profound and intelligent bullshitter haha the way he describes things is so good for asmr but if you heard Somone say it in real life you'd call them a twat haha so glad he's back

[@romankingbhs]

The best description of this account I've ever seen. Bloody well happy he's back and keeping healthy

[@NEEDbacon]

You say that, but given I heard he was some sort of travel manager (certainly the shot of Dubai in the beginning leads credence to that) he's probably actually does well with it. You forget rich twits probably couldn't give two shits about genuine quality so long as it's sold properly. Lots of things are like that TBH.

[@mullallylally]

@@NEEDbacon I'm not saying I don't love the guy I'm just saying if it was anyone but him.talking like this you would say buzz off

[@richardendresz161]

Well yeah the difference is that Articulate design says bullshit that sounds good to make you sleep. IRL salesman will say bullshit to make you sleep and not pay attention to details that would be important for you to hear for him to not be heard but he said. Or something like that I dunno I’m not working in Supermarkets

[@navetal]

@@NEEDbacon If I remember right he's some sort of a planning engineer / consultant, he's made a video about this a few years ago. Maybe he switched jobs since then, though, I don't know.

[@mariiagellfonde2761]

А random fact from a native russian: the russian equivalent for water is вода (vodA), so водка (vOdka) basically sounds like a small water or smth :) because the part KA is frequently used in words to show the smallness of things or to make the word sound cuter, for example птица/птичка (pteetsa/pteetchka, a bird/a small, a cute bird). Thank you for listening to my TED talk XD

I can't put my finger on it... There is a gift you have Matt. You make small talk make people feel so comfortable. Like as if you're almost telling us a secret. Like if we're the only ones in the room with you. Its almost addicting in a way. The way you can control your voice is really good too. You take ASMR to another level because its not just sounds but a story that gives us tingles. Thank you!!!!
