Resumen del Editor

Headphones recommended. 

In this non-binary and body positive piece, a meticulous tailor measures you for a bespoke suit and converses with you while he works. The tactile sounds of fabrics, buttons, a suit brush, hangers, and more create an immersive sound experience. 

Whisperlodge is a pioneering New York-based company that performs live ASMR events around the country. Their collaboration with us is the first time they've allowed their work to be recorded, and you can now experience the talent of their renowned ASMRtists at home. Due to its ability to deeply relax the mind and body, ASMR has become a source of calm and pleasure for millions. Listen and see if it triggers your autonomous sensory meridian response, a tingling sensation that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine.

Ok

The voice was relaxing, unfortunately the background noises sounded like muffled shuffling. Sound quality not clean.

Finally!

I absolutely love this audio. I’ve listened to it every night, and it sends me straight to sleep. I’ve yet to finish the entire audio, and that’s a really great comment for an audiobook designed to help you rest.
Ashton’s voice is mesmerizing.
I cannot recommend this highly enough if, as one reviewer already stated~ you are familiar with asmr.
Fantastic.

Perfect for rich, gay, black men

The narrator sounds exactly like the Fire & Ice Dune YouTube guy. Which is actually more relaxing. Thus was not really relaxing, as a whispering tailor seems very odd. Should have been a stuffy, accented Englishman.

The noises

The whisper voice was fine. But the background action noises are clanky and bothersome. I’m not sure how people sleep through that let alone relax to it.

It really made me almost sleep

It is quite a different experience to have a whole story performed for you in a whisper. A tailor takes a customer through the process of being measured for a new suit, choosing the style, the fabric, and the buttons.

No Tingles, But Still Relaxing

I found this track immersive and relaxing. I see that many reviewers found the whispering creepy. I did not. Perhaps they watch too many horror movies. To me the whispering felt intimate, like friends whispering in the back of math class. I enjoy listening to sounds of all kinds, so the chewing sounds did not bother me. I loved the pencil sounds and the zippers in particular. There is a big jump in volume between the quiet whispering and the ambient sounds that was a bit jarring, so I simply turned the volume down, and that did the trick. It isn't really necessary to hear what the tailor is saying, but I did like the feeling of being cared for. I didn't feel any tingling sensations, but enjoyed the track nonetheless.

not recommended for sleeping

Some of the noises he makes are pretty loud and would wake you up if you are trying to sleep to this.
The ending was just weird really. The whispering did not bother me untill he got to the "breathe in breathe out part"...

surprisingly soothing

almost fell right to sleep. was trying to listen to the rest of story but then woke up the next day.

Promising but one bit

If you cannot stand the sound of someone chewing, I’d avoid this. I was enjoying this until the narrator put a candy in his mouth and chewed. I had to stop it and had to wait a few days to try to listen again by beginning the narration after the chewing part.

Puts me to sleep EVERY TIME.

I listen to this just about every night, and like clockwork, puts me to sleep within minutes.
