It was raining one morning (September 6, 2022 to be exact), so I rushed to put on my thrift store best, then grabbed an umbrella along with my recording gear and a lawn chair. I then proceeded post-haste into the back yard to capture the authentic sound of the rain falling onto the aforementioned device of protection from inclement weather elements. I used a pair of in-ear binaural microphones, so it will sound like you're right there with me. Unfortunately, this ended up being the last 40 minutes of the rain, so I looped the steadiest/best 15 minutes in order to make this long enough for relaxation and sleeping purposes.

Sitting in the rain for ASMR, relaxation and sleep is okay, but for me, it is the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich.
Common McChicken W
I've never had a McChicken what do you taste like
@@BARK910 chicken
@@corbanblakemore5730 yeah I heard it tastes like chicken too
There you are
Anyone else notice how that chair was wet when he sat in it? Pure dedication...
My very first thought. I think he didn't think this through 😛
At least he said they were thrift store clothes. Not sure that excuses the white socks.
Well it was under the rain so...
@@egalitarian-rex Alas right white only... Nobody knows, to this day the color of his left sock right? You assume it too is white. Pure racism.. ")
Anyone else notice that it was raining? Pure dedication...
I desperately want to sit down with this man and have a conversation I feel like I could learn so much about life
for real man i appreciate him so much
I agree
He does have a podcast which is sort of like that experience

@@fushiithegreatone6275 Thanks man, its been years but I'm still proud of it. One of my first works in graphics design lmao, funny in comparison to today when I look back XD
This guy's a maestro - an artistic genius of visuals, sound and concepts. Absolutely admire his work.

I was super worried for ER when I saw this was 3 HOURS long. I thought at first he legitimately sat outside for 3 hours. 😭🤣 Then I saw it was looped and I gave a good sigh of relief 🥱
Still a solid 40 min sitting there if you look at the timestamp, a fair bit if you ask me
Lol I'm pretty sure It didn't rain 3 hours last week but it'd be pretty funny if he actually did just sit there the entire time without large movement
Er is the type of guy to actually sit 3 hours in the rain to record this tho 😂
IMAGINE IF HE DID LMAOO
I don't see how that's bad if it was longer 🤷 i mean really, how can you be tired of NATURE'S ASMR?
The simplicity makes it even more relaxing. Quaint, soft evening rain. Something most people can feel calm listening to. Thank you for making this, ER.

Rain almost sounds like static. So calming
wait till this guy discovers white noise

When I was in first grade or so my dad used to pick me up from school in his old blue truck. One day on the way home it rained briefly, and the sound of the raindrops on the roof was the first time I’d ever felt ASMR. It’s one of my earliest memories, and oh my god this recreates it perfectly.. This is, like, peak Ephemeral Rift for me
Every raindrop was scratching itches throughout my brain. Adore the visual - a surrealist masterpiece - thank you 🙏🪶
I love all the weird videos you do, but sometimes, you just can't beat a tried and true classic. Thank you kindly for this, I'll be utilizing it to hopefully get me through this insomnia
The setting, the audio, the color- everything gives off the vibes of a movie from the classic era of cinema (50’s-60’s). I love this so much
Looks like the cover of George Harrisons album 'All Things Must Pass' atleast, there is an alternate version of it where he also sits there with an umbrella
@@sibrengroen4467 with the colour of the grass, it kinda looks like the "All Things Must Pass" song single art that they released in 2020
@@theprojectofgamers Yeah I know right! I almost can't believe ER wasn't inspired by it
I actually love rain sounds when it’s against an umbrella, I was convinced there were no videos with the specific sound so I recorded my own low quality 1 minute video when it was raining at my house, and then I came across this video, and I get to enjoy the sound in a much better quality, for a longer period of time!
only 1 minute? must have been the most gentle rain ever
I'm in NJ and it's been raining all day. I love these days. Cool but not cold. Rain is so soothing. Thanks Uncle E! for enjoying it with me.
But the humidity and fog was crazy lol
@@watchdogs295 we didn't have any fog where I am and it wasn't humid until the afternoon (we didn't feel it as much). We eventually turned on the ac around dinner time just to ease the humidity.
I love rain sounds for studying and I'm just about to start, so this came at a perfect time (I've also been having a bit of a rough day, so seeing one of my comfort creators post always makes me feel better)
Ey yo I didn't even see it's 3h. E loves his community beyond words...
@@sickna-sty3244 it's looped
@@leroyj62 yeah you right, I didn't realize cause I was still at the first bit of the video. I guess E wanted to make the most out of the little rain he had (since it ended quickly)...
love the saying "comfort creators" gonna steal that
Sorry you were having a rough day, hopefully today is going better for you 🙏
You know rift is a real one when he sits out in the rain for 3 hours lol
I mean, he did just loop a 15 minute clip, but he’s still the 🐐 🐐
He was only out there for 40 minutes
When I saw this video I thought na most ASMR people would have pre recorded sound over the inserted background but with this guy I know that's NOT the case lol lol. He rocks big time love his videos. How if he actually say in the rain for the entire length of the video... Doubtful but he never talked to amaze me on his videos. Your amazing sir.
I share your enthusiasm I do want to point out that in the chapters of the video it does say there is a 15 minute loop.

With you sitting far away, but we can still hear you close to our ears makes _it_ feel comfy.
There's a term for that, it also can happen visually
In all of his different styles, characters, and vibes, Uncle E STAYS putting the ‘art’ in ASMRtist. Dude’s like an ASMR savant, it blows my mind
I really needed this today. My cat just died and its been difficult getting through the day without her.
i am so sorry for the loss of your cat. hope this video makes you feel a little better
This man legit just sat outside in the rain for 3 hours, that's a real chad right there
He is a chad indeed. But it's looped.
ER never ceases to amaze. Honestly, I think he's the top asmr tist.
Definitely in the top one.
This isn’t personally my thing, but the dedication to this is insane! Also, I like to think about how many people passed by seeing him just sitting there, some of them possibly going by more than once and seeing that he hasn’t moved
Probably just his backyard mate
@@impe04 If that’s the case then he lives in a fucking Manor
@@Othillde forty minutes worth with the most start steady 15 minutes looped. Still impressive
I should do the same next time it rains. Go out, sit down with an umbrella, chill.
He's too good, legend Uncle E becomes more powerful every day!
That sound of rain just reminds me of.... "See the man, who stands upon the Hill...He dreams of all the battles won"
Anyone else find it cool that you live in the same weather pattern as one of you're favorite KZheadrs?
As I was listening to this I kept getting sensations of rain drops hitting my skin. Talk about immersion lol.
Video literally just started and I can already tell that this is going to be good.
" I do believe its raining" I love you uncle E
Oh my god i love videos where people just enjoy the rain, its so simple yet such a primal feeling of calm for me
They lengths you goto for us is greatly appreciated.
This could be one of the more pleasant modern art pieces.
This scene could be an album cover.
I think an ASMR of 2 people talking while it is raining would be a nice one. Some people just find the sound of rain and the rain itself a thing of relaxation. Having tea or coffee and just catching up with the sounds of rain fall in the background is fairly nice. A gazebo would be great too as the clear sound of rain along with the subtle cold breeze that comes with it.
Honestly makes me want to go sit in the rain sometime
I absolutely love the talking because it’s hard to hear over the rain which is a relaxing trigger for me. Just muffled sound so I don’t concentrate on what’s being said but background noise to sleep to. Thanks Uncle E ❤️
This was so unique. Every video brings relaxation with a story in a unique setting.
The dedication to sit outside for 40 minutes is crazy. Gotta love ya for it
One of the best rain asmr I've ever seen. And rain is my number 1. Love the ear cupping mics in the rain
that is some REAL commitment to just go outside and sit in rain for 3 HOURS... Uncle E, your doing GREAT! 👍
This reminded me my summer camping. When it's raining loudly and you are trying to fall asleep in your tent.
The dedication of this man
i love this man so fucking mutch,he doesn't need to do a weird character or a creative idea,he can just record himself sitting in a chair holding a umbrella and the video is still a masterpiece
It's literally raining as I get the notification
this was my first video i saw of you. while i adore your comedy i always go back to this for sleep. i love how genuine your videos are and i'm so glad you thought of us all during this moment and shared it
Thats what i need right now
Rain is such a lovely thing for me. It always bring me to a calm state of mind.
This is my favorite thing I've seen in a while! The sounds are good as always and the visual and aesthetic is just so! engaging!
You are sincerely my hero E.R… you have the absolute best content for my sake. You, and SRP ASMR are my go to channels. Thank you so much.
This...this might be my fav so far! I just love the rain.
I feel so bad for him because he sat in the rain for three hours
I swear this would be the perfect album cover for your music 🔥🔥
This really is a pieace of art, thank you for all these years creating this art. This kind of reminds me like if it was a modern Renee Magritte piece
My favorite ASMR creator for the last 9 years going back to the first time I listened was your Hershey chocolates video. YOUR AMAZING
THIS IS PERFORMANCE ART YALL
ER just shows again how he's the greatest ASMRtist out there. He just sat for 3 straight hours in the rain only for our enjoyment. Sensational.
I listen to you every night to relax then switch to rain on umbrella to sleep you just made things super easy ER
ER will always be my favorite. Him, and Gentle Whispers saved me from my anxious mind 10 years ago. I still appreciate you so much ER, if I had a game setup, then I'd love to plug and play with ya, unfortunately where I live currently, I don't.
These are just regular relaxing sound but with ER quality. Love it
Had this on autoplay, clicked over to see Uncle E sitting in the rain with an umbrella and I burst out laughing. I love this man/being/creator
Finally, a rain asmr that doesn’t sound like oil being boiled on a pan.
Truly can understand the feeling of just sitting outside in the rain under an umbrella, its truly surreal, wonderful work as always my freind
This is brilliant. The Sgt Pepper of ASMR.
ER’s creativity never ceases to amaze me
Florida: *rains* Uncle E: "ah what a fine ASMR"
This is a very innovative take on a classic type of asmr. Well done ER! You are still pusing the genre forward.
Sending good vibes from Philly, Rift
Yesss!!! its been so long since a rain video. Thanks mr. rift!!!
You sir are one of a kind... Never stop being yourself ☔
now this, is art
Perfect for sleep, even without headphones
I love how he is just pumping out content!
This is one of the BEST ASMR VIDS EVER
The man, the myth, the legend. Thanks Rift!
Ephemeral Rift deserves the world tbh
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for years! Thank u so much!!
Time traveler: *kicks a rock* The timeline: “up next: sitting in a active fire pit for ASMR, relaxation, and sleep” 😂
I love the part at 23:03 where you can hear the rain. Jokes aside such a good video and I love the commitment

Lo más relajante que me ha pasado desde hace meses. Lo escucharé mil veces

The sheer dedication this man has, I love this video!
You are a legend!! Truly a legend for sitting out in the rain for 3 hours straight! Subscribed for sure
This is truly lush 😁 Even better than shelter from the rain 🌧️ xx
This rain sound is awesome
Everything about this video is amazing
It was a good rainy Sunday for this
This is dope. I wish I was able to relax at this caliber.
Love the rain ER.
Rain is my absolute favorite trigger
this makes me think of the weather CDs and tapes (recordings of rain, thunder, etc) I would check out from the library as a wee kid in the early 90s. I remember one had a little story in one of the cassette booklets of the guy hiding out under some leaves in a jungle then turning on his recorder to catch the sounds of the jungle rain. thanks for the nice video and nostalgia trip 🙂.
Protect this man at all costs.
I was genuinely surprised to find this was looped. Uncle E is the type of guy to actually sit outside in the rain for 3 hours.
There's nothing like a good PA rainstorm
i have never gotten more tingles than this
I feel like the rain is a comfy blanket for me
That's simply amazing sound and at the same time, so simple!!
