The Last Record Shop | ASMR

You just so happen to walk into the last remaining record store in the world.
You can read more about this, the Rift World universe, its characters and various events at my website: ephemeralrift....
If you are new to "ASMR" and/or my channel, welcome aboard and thanks for dropping by! The majority of videos I create, often in an unorthodox manner, are meant to help you relax, sleep, hopefully experience ASMR, and any other use that might help you find some peace of mind, concentrate, study, decompress, etc.
What is ASMR?
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It's just a non-scientific, made-up term that a layperson came up with to describe the feeling characterized as a pleasant tingling sensation felt in various parts of the body (head, scalp, back, legs, etc.) in response to various visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant and without the uncomfortable chills.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally induce this sensation in the viewer, often referred to as "tingles". However, the videos also serve to provide a relaxing, calming, comforting and soothing experience for people beyond ASMR purposes. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy these videos.
I experienced ASMR all throughout my life but no longer do as of a couple years ago. However, I still enjoy creating these videos for anyone else that still experiences it or is just looking to relax, sleep, study, etc.

I really love how you're an avid advocate for mental health as well as creative with your videos. I have ADD and it can be really hard to focus but somehow I find that your videos keep me focused on my work. I think it's because they're so entertaining but at the same time not distracting. The voice is an amazing thing when you use it creatively. Thank you for doing what you do and I sincerely hope you continue doing it.

I know this is supposed to be a nice relaxing ASMR video (and it is, don't get me wrong), but I am just enthralled by the packaging design of that new Tool album because it is absolutely phenomenal. For taking a 13 year hiatus, they sure did come back with a vengeance!

When he said “music is banned” a part of me died. I’m 14 and play the piano and have a beautiful upright piano from the 60s or 70s and have a whole tall shelf of records and cassette tapes and some CDs so that almost made me freak out

[@chuckster..]

During his explanation of the “New World Order” I began thinking of what the world would be like if music became globally banned. The thought of music being taken away from myself, let alone the entire world, scares the absolute shit out of me.
