Looking for the best ASMRtists to follow on YouTube? I would assume that if you clicked on this article, you probably already know what ASMR is and just want some video recommendations, which we’ll definitely get to in a second. But for those of you who are still curious, ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) is basically that tingly sensation some of us feel on the back of our heads or neck whenever someone whispers in our ear or hear any other type of soothing sound. It can even be triggered by visual media too!
ASMR definitely isn’t for everyone though, as not everyone experiences the sensation, and there are many misconceptions about it. But as someone who’s been watching videos for several years now and considers herself well versed on the subject, I’m here to recommend some of the best ASMRtists to follow on YouTube.

3. Goodnight Moon
I only recently discovered this channel, but it’s quickly become one of my favorites. You will often find role-play videos in the ASMR community, in which the ASMRtists will pretend to be a specific character and build their triggers around that. Well, Erin has created an entire fictional world for her ASMR channel, in which she plays all the characters, from witches to mermaids, and innkeeper to owner of a magical creatures shop. Her acting skills are amazing and the production that goes into her videos is outstanding, so even if you’re not into ASMR, they really are worth watching just for the stories.
4. ASMR Magic
Through this channel you’ll get to experience ASMR through a variety of microphones such as the 3Dio, Tascam, Rode mics, among others. Her videos also tend to be on the longer side, so they’re perfect for when you’re trying to fall asleep!
5. Gentle Whispering ASMR
Maria has probably one of the most soothing voices in the ASMR community. No matter what objects she’s playing with or what the theme of her video is, her whispers will be enough to drive you to complete relaxation, hence the name of her channel! She also puts out different types of videos with a wide variety of triggers (including cooking) and seems to excel at every one of them.
