Traditional ASMR: Incredibly Quiet Unintelligible Ear-To-Ear Whispering And Muttering (Patreon)

Recently I got a new vocal booth and put together a new stereo setup for my studio microphones. To test it, I wanted to make the quietest ASMR I possibly could, and this is the result. It's a bunch of gobbledegook nonsense muttering and some ear-to-ear whispering. I intentionally left the pop filters off my mics, so there is also some deep, rumbly breathy sounds occasionally. I quite like how those sound, and left them in. You'll also occasionally hear me shifting around, my stomach gurgling, things like that.
I'm not saying anything in any language (aside from one point near the end when I say goodnight in English), so if you hear something that sounds like words you recognise it's pure coincidence.
This was an experiment and I'm fairly happy with the result, but I think it could have been even quieter. My microphones (Rode NT-1) have impressively low self-noise and I'm happy with their performance, but my audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2i2 gen 4) could be better for this use case, and I can hear some electrical interference that I could have reduced a lot by cutting power to some things in my studio during the session.
I was originally going to title this something like "The Quietest ASMR In The World", but I don't think I managed to make it quiet enough to earn that level of clickbait. I'll try again another time.
I hope you enjoy it, anyway.
Love,
