Genre of Many Colors

I found out about ASMR about 4 years ago and in all that time it feels like the genre likes to tell its story using seven different formats: 

-Roleplay     -Whisper
-Binaural      -Eating
-Tapping       - Crinkling
-Erotic 

Each of these formats give ASMR  a different feel and give the viewer a sort of variety to choose from. Most Videos are made of a mismatch of two or more of these. The way ASMR works is that it tries to emulate sound in a natural way from its natural environment, or in at least a way that would give you tingles. Most people would say that ASMR that you get naturally is the best so you have people making videos trying to put up as much sound and in a way to trigger tingles. That is the basic premise of all ASMR  and what ASMRtist (Youtubers who put up this content) try to do everytime they post a video.

For the next seven weeks i'm going to be writing a different post detailing on each and every one of the formats that i listed above. I will of course be give one or two videos as recommendations and examples of each one. Cheers!!! To the next two months!
