asmrtist 

ASMRtists are the people who create ASMR videos for others. Usually found on YouTube. Some are becoming quite famous.

So they are the artists behind all kinds of videos, containing triggers to make you feel wonderful and experience:

Autonomous
Sensory
Meridian
Response

Which can be described as a tingling sensation which starts at the top of your head and then moves down to the top of your spine. It feels great and that is why it's also called a braingasm.
