Gotta say, i'm digging ASMaRk. But kinda miss the moments where he goes off on something he doesn't like. That HAS to be screamed imo. But, overall i like it. 7,5 outta 10. Check it out. (Y)
I'd honestly love for Mark to make a third channel specifically for ASMR because his charismatic voice is just so naturally relaxing when he's whispering. Edit: Gave a few spins to that Katia Krow album and I’m honestly very pleasantly surprised at how much I like it especially as someone who doesn’t listen to that much ambient or drone music. The instrumental atmosphere really captivated me especially with the electroacoustic pieces woven throughout the project that imo really help to split up the tracks and add some compositional and textural diversity.
One of my favorite reviews of Mark's is his 2017 review of _Hiss Spun_ by Chelsea Wolfe. I loved the chilling nature of his voice in that review and the Katia Krow review reminded me of that in the best possible way. I've always adored how great Mark is at painting a picture with just his words and the quiet but still haunting nature of his voice combined with the music gave me chills that I haven't felt since Stephen Colbert's monologue on the January 6th riots. Some of your best work to date Mark.
Not into Ambient music, just wanted to hear Mark do ASMR. This suits him very well, would love to hear more reviews in this style..... I'm going to sleep now.
Didn’t expect this. Overall not bad. I think it would work better for me if your voice was more at a whisper instead of a soft talk. And I don’t know if you have that type of mic where the sound shift from one ear to the other. I think this would be killer. Overall tho I like the experiment
Props to UA-cam’s ads for almost also sticking on brand for the concept. Glad you dug the loathe record as much as I am man. This was def a treat and nice BG while doing some level editing lol
Honestly, that was my thinking too, but then I hear him whisper-talk and I just start laughing. Nothing against Mark, I applaud him for trying to do something unique with his material, but it's just not for me; it feels distracting more than anything. But that's just one guy's opinion.
I will be the first to admit that ASMR can be _very_ hit and miss for me. Sometimes I get the tingles, other times I go "Do you need a lozenge?" For me at least, this was the former although I understand why others wouldn't be as high on it. Also, there were parts during the Katia Krow review where Mark sounded like Smaug from The Hobbit.
I heard Bicep and Loathe albums, both I thought were alright, Loathe's one was more enjoyable, I'm glad they were able to nail doing that sound. I prefer their metalcore material though, but I know, we have different tastes.
I'm hoping to hear marks more colorful language in this kind of style. Like hear stuff similar to "Trigger Warning its post Malone" or that quote in the click review about sounding. All in this same ASMR tone
this is very conflicting for me because ASMR narration like this has never really done it for me and this mostly ended up kind of unnatural and off-putting to listen to, but I am also 100% on board for a full episode on ambient music and there's even a bunch here I'd never heard of and definitely seem like the kind of thing I'd like
i like how voltorb is just sitting there like "mark wtf are you doing. stop. please."
I don’t want Mark to put me to sleep because I might wake up to find that he’s stolen MY girl

i cannot express to you how perfect your writing style is for ASMR
now the next challenge is to review AJR's upcoming album like this
Yes!
then the review can become as comforting as people hope the album will be
The polar opposite version of this is to do one of those “______ but I’m screaming” type videos.
AJSMR

I’m surprised by how amazing Mark actually is at ASMR, love the creative direction!
I agree, Mark. Go in this direction! 😀😄
Mark is the type of dude that would take your girl and you’d be totally fine with that
even the hand motions feel as though they are trying to do asmr, so majestic...
At this point, ASMR stands for Ambient Sounding Music Review haha

haha don't take this as a negative but I have been putting on billboard breakdown as white noise to sleep to for ages now... I feel so catered to
You too? Yeah at night hearing Mark reviewing music on Billboard Breakdown leaves a nice feel that helps me relax
omg yes! im not the only one who does this!
thank GOD this is happening, i've been waiting for an asmr video from you for literal years.
I'm sorry but I keep laughing! Your voice is always so loud and gruff that seeing you do this is so unexpected.
I love the different things you do. From Meme Reviews, to ASMR. I hope one day to see another Meme Review they're awesome!
Not into Ambient music, just wanted to hear Mark do ASMR. This suits him very well, would love to hear more reviews in this style..... I'm going to sleep now.
Thankyou so much for listening to Sanctuary Mark, really appreciate you taking the time to cover it :)
Welcome folks and welcome to ASMR Pulse!
This is the greatest thing ever and yes I will sleep listening to this 😂😂😂
Didn’t expect this. Overall not bad. I think it would work better for me if your voice was more at a whisper instead of a soft talk.
And I don’t know if you have that type of mic where the sound shift from one ear to the other. I think this would be killer.
Overall tho I like the experiment
Now *this* is what I subscribed for!!
*The New Trend is coming in the music review community*
I'm gonna expect this in the Next Billboard Breakdown
Props to UA-cam’s ads for almost also sticking on brand for the concept. Glad you dug the loathe record as much as I am man. This was def a treat and nice BG while doing some level editing lol
I, for one, welcome our new ASMR overlord
Oh look, it's my favorite reviewer- ASMaRk
how naïve i was to think that on the pulse ambient meant we were reviewing all ambient albums this week and that would be that.
Honestly, that was my thinking too, but then I hear him whisper-talk and I just start laughing. Nothing against Mark, I applaud him for trying to do something unique with his material, but it's just not for me; it feels distracting more than anything.
But that's just one guy's opinion.
I mean, this was a largely ambient lineup for the week, so it does suit the theme.
Spectrum Pulse ASMR
This is soooooo relaxing I love it!
Glad you uploaded this of all things Mark 😂
This was soothing to listen to while 3d modelling ngl. Definitely enjoyed how creative you've been recently. Really enjoy ambient as a whole.
Well, it's after 4am and I'll be going to sleep after this. Thank you for this well timed video, Mark!

Mark's ASMR voice is sexy! (but I also can't help but laugh at the same time)
…all of this. >/////>;
Great upgrade to your vids! Thanks Mark and keep up the goodwork!
The ASMR here is better than it has any right to be. Great job!
Lmao was not expecting this from you of all people Mark😂😂😂😂
Mark, why is your quiet ambient review ASMR voice so… attractive? I'm loving this but also scared.
I think I would like to see more videos like this every once in a while yeaaaa.
lmao you should do more asmr reviews like this
This worked surprisingly well at least for me it did
OH MY GOD you madlad
Didn't expect this at all, and it scared the shit out of me for a moment.
Please don't let this happen to Billboard Breakdown
Please DO let this happen
Please do lol
Don’t know how I feel about this format, but sooooo happy Loathe got an 8
Sooo....soothing.... 😴😴😴😴
mom come pick me up i'm scared
Okay, I actually really like this
This was an unexpected and very pleasant surprise
Damn you should make this a monthly thing lol.
well
this was interesting 😂
edit: was not expecting an 8 for Loathe tho❤
Ambient music reviews brought to you by Mark Grondin of NPR Music
I'm hoping to hear marks more colorful language in this kind of style. Like hear stuff similar to "Trigger Warning its post Malone" or that quote in the click review about sounding. All in this same ASMR tone
A nice slient themed music i only heard Loathe and i am feel relaxed 9/10
Why does this remind me of that time Ryan (From the Let's Play Channel) who was sick during the Monopoly Pt1 Episode of Minecraft?
Ok, unexpected as fuck. I don't know how to feel about this.
fantastic idea yo
this is very conflicting for me because ASMR narration like this has never really done it for me and this mostly ended up kind of unnatural and off-putting to listen to, but I am also 100% on board for a full episode on ambient music and there's even a bunch here I'd never heard of and definitely seem like the kind of thing I'd like
I had a very similar reaction, honestly
This would be cool as a one time thing. Idk if I could watch more reviews like these. I'm not really into ASMR
Katia Krow record is a beaut
Ok now give us this for an entire rock colieseum
How about his review for the next AJR record be in this voice?
It's so strange I've listened to you talk enough that I can hear you talking normally in my head and the tone you would use with most things
No Country For Old Marks
Woooooot new On The Pulse!
I wonder what this is like for first time viewers
How many times did you have to rerecord sections due to sudden explosions of laughter Mark?
What the hell mark? This is weird. I love it, but still, what the actual hell? Lol
Here before a million views.
I'm sorry but this really just ain't it for me chief, really hoping this does end up being a one off
If 21 Savage releases an ASMR album Mark needs to do this for it!
