Auralescent is a Youtuber and Twitch streamer known for making ASMR roleplaying videos.
ASMR or Autonomous sensory meridian response is a tingling sensation that usually occurs on the scalp and down the back of the neck and spine or starts on the scalp and moves down the beck.
It is a pleasant form of paresthesia, which is an abnormal sensation of the skin. ASMR has often been compared to auditory-tactile synesthesia overlapping with frisson.
The consensus among people who experience ASMR is that it gives a subjective experience of low-grade euphoria that has often been characterized as a combination of positive feelings and a distinct static-like tingling sensation on the skin.
These feelings are most commonly triggered by specific auditory or visual stimulation and intentional attention control, though the latter is uncommon.
The genre of videos to simulate ASMR, called ASMR videos, has been prevalent on Youtube since the early 2010s. As of June 2018, 13 million ASMR videos have been published on YouTube. This is where Auralescent comes in. He makes audio-only ASMR videos and has amassed quite a following doing so.
His most prominent videos are targeted toward the female demographic as these videos have been ones where he roleplays as the boyfriend, comforting and helping the listener.
Has Auralescent Done A Face Reveal?
No, youtube and twitch streamer Auralescent has not done a face reveal on any of his platforms.
The whole appeal of Auralescent’s videos is that they are audio-only. The draw of these sorts of videos is the voice, and only the voice, which is usually deep and calming.
Most audio-only boyfriend roleplaying channels have some form of anime or furry boy in the background, either as a painting or as an avatar. Auralescent was old school and only had a black screen while he spoke directly to the listener.
His voice was deep, but he also slurred and left long silences. It’s almost like he would be sleeping next to the listener. His fans ate it up, and that is exactly why he has amassed over 49,242,130 views, even though he only joined on April 21, 2019.
Since his first video, which was uploaded on March 24, 2020, has amassed hundreds of thousands of views on each of his uploads. His most popular video, a boyfriend roleplay video where he falls asleep with the listener, has amassed 1.7 million views.
Auralescent has five videos that have reached or surpassed a million views.
