ASMR Binaural Mic Test: Part Two

[@vinylpop]

8 years later and this is still my favorite ASMR video. She intentionally, and unintentionally hits so many triggers. Guaranteed tingles. Her absence is painful. I hope she is doing well.

[@Comaduster]

This is when ASMR content was at it's best to me. And Violet is the champ. ASMR triggering is very incidental to me, and it has been my entire life. It almost needs to be an accident, something subtle that's noticed. The early experiments in the genre offered experiences that weren't so overt, or sexual, or forced. None of that stuff works on me all -- it's akin to tickling one's self: The stimulation is there but it's predictable. 'earlier' ASMR videos just seem so much more incidental, and the moments of really great ASMR are profound to me. I will always love listening to this.

[@Drjoshington]

Very well put.

[@chippewaguy4193]

Asmr has always been sexual. Yeah now it’s way more channels doing it sexual but even gentlewhispers herself used to do sexual asmr before she got big.

[@Comaduster]

@@chippewaguy4193 Oh yeah, I know it's definitely always been there for sure. Looking back on that, I honestly don't know why I put that in my comment -- I could have just said "...experiences which weren't so overt, exaggerated, or forced." To get my message across. I just happen not to prefer overtly sexual ASMR, it's just not for me -- I could see why a lot of people would be into it at the same time hahaha. The main thing for me is how more incidental ASMR triggers from earlier ASMR directed content hits different to nearly everything I've found now.

[@Wysaw]

I think the amount of effort with minimal editing was the way, like how Veni set up the dummy so that we can hear the brushes instead of just seeing it or watching someone literally just brush a mic in front of a camera. Modern ASMR it seems if you're lucky on a mic brush video, they will use 2 brushes one on the mic and one on the screen but most just brush the screen with no sound, or brush the mic with no visual. This is why I like King Hobbit for recent ASMR, she sets up mic rigs and although she edits in sounds, it matches really well and it is very high effort stuff. Also very unique style(chaotic relaxation lol)

[@Mrinsomniac]

Is it just me or do older ASMR videos sound better than newer ones?

[@crystals429]

Mrinsomniac yes they do

[@ericgoodman3670]

Paradoxically, I think the crazy-high quality of the mics and recording spaces nowadays is ruining it. It makes the videos sound way too professional, so they lose a piece of the personal aspect. But that's just my two cents; I know plenty of people prefer the ludicrously high quality for the realism and immersion.

[@jadevaimarama6381]

I agree!¡

[@gethinap]

I think it's because older microphones provide white noise while the newer ones don't.

[@stevejenkins6624]

Good observation, I think you are all dead on.

[@nickhigh510]

2020 and im still here , she is sooo relaxing with her whispering , would love to know how she is getting on .......

[@cpagerun]

Nick High I had forgotten about her until she randomly popped up in my recommendations. It made me so happy but now I’m bummed all over again that she stopped uploading.

[@AXharoth]

shes the best

[@lazytitan4221]

She was my first Asmrtist, so i miss her work so much! In one of her last videos she mentioned her studies in Nursing, so i imagine that she finished studies, started work, and i imagine her 2020 as a nurse was intense!

[@AXharoth]

@@lazytitan4221 hope shes alright :)

[@user-th7qt1mb5v]

@CAREorDIE someone said that shes nurse in diffrent vid

[@JLim4o]

Three years ago, this was my first ASMR video that I watched, and three years later, remains the best. Miss you Violet. :)

[@JLim4o]

Update: Remains the best!

[@Rennat9002]

Can confirm: still best

[@noosehangr]

I confirm: still the best :)

[@lazyfunnehboneguy]

confirmed: still the best

[@stoicfloor]

I would say that Violet is the best ASMR performer on KZbin. I just love her voice and her whisper

[@lamargary980]

top 5 for sure. No one can doubt that.

[@lamargary980]

she is in my top 3. Violet too.

[@bernieorbust6104]

maria no.1. Violet is no. 2. then the massageasmr bloke is no.3. then the rest don't matter they're copy cats

[@reenierossi7669]

NIGGAS Who is the massageasmr bloke?

[@bernieorbust6104]

Reenie Rossi check it out bruh, tingle city: *****

[@NeoDragoN7676]

So nearly 6 years later I'm still watching this and waiting for her return.....

[@kersencranwill9820]

Tat K thats a completely different person..

[@Hiyori___]

19:42 - 22:55 sequence is the only, most superlative, most relaxing, most sleep inducing ASMR I have ever found. And I've been watching ASMR video for 8 or 9 years.

[@sammy2nd]

yes same this is the moment that no other asmr experience has rivaled for me, in 10 fricken years now

[@AyesSemMarR]

This should be ASMR master class material. She got me into ASMR with her earlier videos. Nobody does ASMR as good as her these days. This is legendary stuff. Wish she would come back. A lot of newer artists are way too over the top and over produced and many do the same stuff. She was one of the greatest!

[@detroitguy1131]

I've had to of watched this video at least 300 times In my life, I remember watching it when it first came out. One of the best videos ever made... also there werent ads during the video on it in the past so thats good to see, hope you make some well deserved bread off this one!! Thank you for it!!

[@albinaXIV]

this video popped up in my recommended page and i thought it was a new upload i nearly cried

[@AnteBrkic]

After three years, still the best, imo.

[@fear459]

after 4 years. still the best imo as well (:

[@Vjotaaa]

After 5 years, these feathers makes me tingle like nothing else :)

[@SaddenTrap]

[@bruceperedo2280]

7 years now:(

[@mary.b.93]

oh my god. i can't believe this was already 3 years ago. that means i've been watching asmr videos for over 3 years. i remember being so psyched when this came out and watching it like a thousand times.

[@InvincibleSummer-s8p]

we're ASMR connoisseurs!

[@michaelmarsh13]

It's 5 years old now.

[@pencilpusher7905]

Welcome to 7 years y’all 😤

[@kbk239]

More than a decade now.

[@doormatt72]

I love all of your videos, but for some reason I think this is my favorite of all of them. It just feels so personal. I've watched it many times and I'm so thankful for all these videos.

[@jaycegreen3984]

I don't experience ASMR tingles but I listen to a whispering video every night and it relaxes me so much! Your voice is so soothing! :)

[@jaredwilliams4621]

This was the first ASMR video I ever saw. And I finally knew I wasn't a weirdo for looking at Bob Ross videos or massage clips when I was trying to sleep. Thank you for that :) I hope all is well.

[@mikefarr3967]

:30-1:30 is some of my favorite ASMR ever. I come back to this video often just for that

[@SirStamford27]

I totally agree. When she does that first ear to ear it is the best ASMR ever.

[@Farcallo]

Same!

[@jroark101]

Man this is so good! I hope she’s ok in life. Still strange to have no announcement deciding to quit

[@annamason8120]

12 years later and this is still OG

[@SirStamford27]

Please come back Violet, please!!! This may just be the best ASMR video ever made. We all miss you and hope everything is OK with you.

[@MultiDebom]

i cant agree with you more

[@Triplechoco52]

SirStamford27 You didn't see her facebook post?

[@eylaleila]

***** what facebook post?

[@SirStamford27]

Still waiting for your return. This will always be a ASMR classic video.

[@lilyaileen2211]

This was the first asmr video I ever watched! Still so so good!!

[@spezistyle]

You are the goddess of ASMR to me. Noone gets so many tingles out of me then you do. I want to thank you so much for your work. Love and hugs.

[@FrankWithanF]

These videos literally make me smile, yours is contagious. Good thing theres still a few more after these that I havent seen yet.

[@Guacamolian]

2020. Violet what happened to you? Where are you?! You're one of my favorites and I still come back and watch your content. ☹️☹️☹️ I hope you are doing well, whatever you're doing these days 👍😁

[@ralphroe5625]

There has never been anyone better (or smarter) here. She understood the power of the human voice to repair the troubled soul. And she made herself expert in the technology to simulate that. WOW! What a fascinating woman she must be. God does not make many like that. A rare jewel.

[@GrimsFedora]

I keep coming back to this video, your description during the feather segment, everything about the fire segment and, of course the scalp massage are just fantastic.

[@scottadcock550]

favorite ASMRtist on KZbin.

[@ree1120]

i'm so glad i discovered asmr

[@Vjotaaa]

I'm glad Violet did.

[@franciscomontanes8775]

This is without any doubt the best relaxing video I have ever seen. Great scalp massage. High quality sounds. Amazing whispers. Congrats!

[@nhoquim]

I’m in love with her face. Such a beautiful face and a mesmerizing whispering voice. I hope she’s living a happy life.

[@ArcticSeabee]

8 years and counting. Still get tingles watching your content. We miss you. Hope you are well and happy 😊

[@ergonomade]

I so love this video. Everything about it. Ear-to-ear, the lighter, the scissors, how you touch the lens with your fingers at the beginning, your soothing voice.. And also, you look really beautiful :) Please, make more videos like this, I would absolutely love it.

[@Demiurge66]

This takes me back when ASMR was pure..it’s garbage now for the exception of a few channels but had she stuck to it should prob would have million subs and be making more then being a doctor.

[@VeniVidiVulpes]

I hope not, but I have been having some trouble with comments lately--Firefox/KZbin has been buggy and sometimes things don't get approved like they should, or they end up getting deleted. I'm sorry if that happened to your comment. :(

[@T0424-g7x]

Miss you!

[@honeybwp1]

Your video on the spa experience was the first asmr vid I saw when I discovered what they were and the result was the best drooling sleep ever. Now I have 3 that I watch always. Yours, kiwi whispers and the water whispers ilsa. Keep up the great work each of you bring something different and each of your voices effect my sleep different.

[@JunJP02]

Revisit in 2024, and the tingles and relaxation still flow.

[@Slaykid24]

Is anyone here from 2024???

[@jackgamble6120]

:)

[@scamperingcat]

✌🏻

[@ShellyMellyBelly]

🥹

[@Depersonalist]

Yep

[@highvibrations1718]

She remains one of my favorite 🩷

[@AEssex1990]

This is amazing, I used this this morning and it was the most relaxing thing I have ever felt. Please make more of these, it is almost like meditation for me now. I love this. Your voice is ridiculously relaxing.

[@gto201]

6:55 - "Now my dummy has some hair." lol Everything after this phrase - her pretty smile, getting up on her tip-toes, the closeup of her mouth, as she gives us a scalp massage - this is prime ASMR territory! So much to love about this video, but this is one of my favorite ASMR sequences of all time. Viva la Violet!

[@OrangeOrange006]

yess

[@SirStamford27]

Agreed. My favourite part is from about 30 seconds to one and a half minutes, when she does the first ear to ear, but this video will always be an all time classic from the start of ASMR becoming popular . Most of her content is some of the best early ASMR I miss her a lot.

[@clivel5755]

I bought a pair of $100 Sennheiser headphones right before I discovered ASMR videos this summer (kind of a big purchase for me for that kind of thing) and WOW what a fortunate pairing that turned out to be. Fell asleep watching (or just listening, after a short while) to one of your videos and woke up hours later to another one and just felt so good! You know something's good when you say to yourself "How did I ever go without this?". Thanks again Violet! Also, thanks for reminding me about preparing my own chicken broth (you mentioned it in another video).. you're not the first person I've heard mention that there's a *huge* difference between homemade and store-bought. (lol.. just had to add that in there)

[@WhisperingInTheDeep]

I'm with you on that! I use Sennheiser PC 360's.

[@itsthenacho]

***** ASMR** not amsr xD But i agree with you. my sennheisers broke so i use my Bose Livingroom Surround set. Sound is coming from every corner!

[@itsthenacho]

Au contrair my friend, it actually sounds SO good ;)

[@jamesf901]

You guys need to buy the sennheiser hd800s and pair it with the right amp/ dac then watch this video

[@projectJ30]

Sennheiser is garbage.

[@mjhow6901]

Ear brushing video sounds fantastic! Please make that in the near future. Wouldn't be able to sleep without your videos. Thanks a mill, Phil!

[@pyrogreg8]

It hurts not knowing where she is. These videos helped me sleep during a dark depression

[@movement2contact]

and WhisperCrystal...

[@SirStamford27]

Agreed. I'd love to see violet make a comeback. Or just let us know what she's up too. She helped a lot of us back in the day.

[@nguyenthanh-vinh4398]

after nearly 7 years, still watching this.

[@jennygraham5786]

One of my favorite videos. Love the beginning. Tracing around the camera and the ear to ear whisper is very relaxing. The feathers are wonderful as well as the ear brushing part. You mentioned you could do an ear exam/ ear brushing video. I truly hope you do that one. Those are so relaxing. Thank you for all your hard work and your time. Your videos are part of my nightly routine, as you are (without a doubt) my favorite asmr artist.

[@VeniVidiVulpes]

That one's coming up next! :)

[@SirStamford27]

Still one of the best ASMR videos ever.

[@spud1300]

Oh man.... that close ear whispering is unbelievable... just totally covered with goosebumps. You're amazing.

[@paulgrinsill7785]

The undisputed Queen of ASMR

[@movement2contact]

funny guy...

[@melissalynn6141]

Where are you?????? :( You were the best asmr artist at the time!!

[@BlackPlectrum]

The microphones are awesome, I listened to this video with in-ear headphones, and I really felt like you stood right behind me. Felt so good, thank you

[@ali_rogue_]

I understand the profectionism thing she had mentioned in her Scalp Massage video. It can get you down when you see nothing but faults.. If only she could see her Channel now... She's top rater! Thanks Violet & her Professionalism.

[@pnutt3074]

Still my fav a.s.m.rtist, NOBODY can trigger me like you can.. miss you wish you would come back.

[@jesseburnett465]

Got new head phones and I can't believe how awesome your mics are.. Its crazy how much I heard that I had been missing before. I love the videos.

[@deathmetalpotato]

i remember when she first uploaded this 😭

[@jackgamble6120]

Today is 2024...Is it just me or do older ASMR videos like this one sound better than newer ones?

[@pulpeto007]

You're not alone. 12.10.2024

[@BillDesmarais]

I just learned today that this thing I've always had has a name, isn't something everyone has, and can be triggered on purpose. This is the best video I've yet found - THANK YOU. Blissing out.

[@TheLoStBoYs89]

She is so beautiful it's insane her eyes are so luring.

[@scamperingcat]

Where have you disappeared to? I hope you are okay. Sending love ❤

[@piattosboy420]

i love this video. i like how every sound is so crispy. i like how your voice is audible and can easily be understood. you don't sound airy when you whisper. cheers!

[@RandoPandaSmiles]

That lighter was awesome.

[@bruceperedo2280]

Am I still the only one watching this 2018? I wonder what happened to her

[@aldof3161]

Lol so true. I subscribed her channel since 2012. Miss her so much 😭

[@movement2contact]

I think she went to study something medicine-related (like patient care or smth). She mentioned it in one of here "newer" videos.

[@pacoj02]

I still watch

[@TheLoStBoYs89]

nope me too she could at least leave us or have left us a final goodbye video lol thats if she did go study somewhere ya know.

[@TheLoStBoYs89]

EVIDENCE TROLL EVIDENCE you trying to tell me you are the only one who actually knows out of everyone who doesn't give me a break give me EVIDENCE

[@ThatSpiffingChap]

The last three were so good; the lighter was the best (and seriously original and great) and the real hair brushing and shirt were ace too!

[@jamesalexanderyoutube9583]

come back violet ❤ ive loved you since you started. we miss you so much

[@byronrodriguez3375]

Hello, I am from Chile and I like these videos, 2 parts, but do not understand much, but some get it from what you say, and maybe I missed, but help me to sleep, do not know why, but the effect in three dimensions and your voice is soothing, it makes me sleep a lot ... and just relax me. Thanks and good videos.

[@johannes_frank]

This was one of the first ASMR videos I‘ve watched and I‘m still coming back to it. It‘s 2020 now and I‘m still hoping for you to come back Violet. I hope you‘re good!

[@crunkinthis]

Violet we all need a new video. Were r u?

[@brianmclaughlin358]

Please come back.

[@RynnKunoichi937]

Because of your virtual spa video, I actually found a pore bristle brush just like yours and I love it!! Thanks so much for your amazing videos, Violet :3

[@teodosiodasilva9032]

where are you? I miss you.

[@pacoj02]

Still awaiting your return!

[@meeshka_x]

All these years and the reveal of the big Santa decoration as her "Scalp Massage Prop" still cracks me up. It's so unexpectedly silly and being made to smile like that is definitely a welcome bit of relief that jumpstarts the relaxation.

[@JesseMusicc]

The lighter sounds like car's passing by in the rain, you should make a video doing that or something. :)

[@MultiDebom]

you probably need a new car man....

[@UnluckySwine]

YES! ive looked everywhere but i cant find another good lighter asmr video or any lighter asmr videos at all

[@kingmuffasa27]

I still miss you

[@FiairFlair]

The segment with the lighter was especially good. Flames can be remarkably tranquil: I think they would make a great video (the crackling of a fireplace especially). Thank you for breathing life into a potentially mundane equipment test and creating such a blissful and gentle video.

[@aldof3161]

This video still could helping me for sleep. I wonder where she is now 😔

[@SPDLST]

She's still the best.

[@SirStamford27]

You quite simply are the best. You + whisper + ear to ear = the perfect ASMR video.

[@trafalet]

Where are you?

[@PrettyLadyDivine]

She's a nurse and doesn't want to return.

[@GameGod77]

It seems like this was a lot of people's first ASMR video. I wonder why that is?

[@SPDLST]

Interesting question.

[@jessi-buttn4988]

yes you are the best voilet. I've watched half of your videos but this one really got me :)

[@BiIIyD]

There's a level of background noise in early asmr videos that modern videos do a terrible job of capturing.

[@movement2contact]

Maybe because they're filtered out...

[@marcase2003]

Can't believe it's almost 9 years... Such a beautiful voice, such a sweet girl - and then she shows that doll with an eye gouged out (28:00) because "I was bored one evening"... o.O

[@BallHeadFreak]

I would bet you almost any amount that girl is crazy IRL.

[@MOLLYLUNCHCO]

Okay, the sounds that sequined shirt made blew my mind. That was nuts in the best possible way! : )

[@pvtrichardsonbr]

where are you when my ears need you the most?

[@konsul2006]

I don't care for the new coming of christ, it's the return of Violet that matters. please!

[@Wolfman4TW]

This is pure gold. Can't stop listening. I fall asleep every single time...

[@KINGKING-pm3dm]

miss you

[@momo-yy3dp]

hello anyone?

[@melodielcolburn]

I've watched this enough to lose the ASMR sensation, but It still relaxes me to sleep better than any other video out there. It's my go-to to fight the insomnia.

[@rebeccatrafford2417]

Taking into account she is properly busy having a life I think she should just at least drop in with a annoucement video or comment to say she will be away for how ever long and she will be back when etc just so we know she is alright for her to say nothing in 3 years seems very odd I hope she is ok

[@rebeccatrafford2417]

+SFseis beg to differ the world spins on superficial everyday I am referring to being concerned about her it'd a perfectly logical observation

[@claudiacook619]

Where did Violet go I miss her :(

[@alizeross6355]

Oh my gosh. I haven't felt this way listening to a whisper video in a long time. Great job.

[@aeroces7]

mmm say omnidirectional again

[@projectJ30]

Space is fake

[@sammy2nd]

damn 10 years

[@TheAyeAye1]

Surprised at how it was to hear the nice hiss from the lighter. Love the ear to ear with a little blowing thrown in. You have a wonderful voice.

[@linkingaj]

Your high !

[@GarikWheeler]

My high what?

[@linkingaj]

Garik Wheeler Check her eye's you fuck! She's not normal! My high what?; Grow some sense:- like hydroponics

[@GarikWheeler]

linkingaj Lol, clearly you didn't understand that I'm poking fun at your grammar in your first post.

[@GarikWheeler]

linkingaj Oh hush. Listen to the sound of Violet whispering to us instead of getting offended at my teasing.

[@TehDurpinator]

linkingaj oh no ud beet him um im so scured. Seriously, it's the internet. Shut the hell up, you can't do shit.

[@melaniereed8062]

I do believe I have a new favorite whisperer! You are in a class all your own! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos & for helping me relax & achieve a completely peaceful state of mind :-)

[@gabes80]

Always good listening to you. Can I just say that it's your voice that is what many of us are coming for, and as such the rustling and scratching noises are, for many of us, mostly... just noise. Would be great to have more videos with just you whispering and speaking softly.

[@Hiyori___]

I've watched this video sooooo many times! My fav part is the feathers one, i found that their sound is my best asmr trigge
