ASMR on the Early Internet | Relaxing 90's Web Browsing for Nostalgia and Sleep

- Let's browse the Internet of the 90's and early 2000's! In this ASMR video, I browse a collection of well-preserved websites from the early years of the Internet while giving soft-spoken commentary to help you relax and sleep. We'll take a look at lots of classic websites and the primitive webpages of some of today's biggest companies and services. I hope you'll enjoy it!
This video was created using Protoweb, a free service that's working to recreate the experience of the early Internet as thoroughly as possible. If you want to check it out yourself, you can find more info on the Protoweb site: protoweb.org/

This is absolute perfection. Windows 98 SE was the core of my childhood memories.
Thank you!

THE 3D BLAST RENDER IN THE THUMBNAIL
Sonic
I actually just got a sealed copy of the game for only 10 dollars, it’s one of my favorite things I own now I actually have a video posted opening it if you wanna see
Best game ever
yep bro, these renderings have some strange feeling of nostalgia that I have never experienced. supposedly they look smooth and shiny, but at the same time cardboard and creepy. although these are probably the reasons why I love these models)
wow you have eyes
Starting off with one of if not the BEST noise humanity as a whole ever created.
It should have cured aids and world hunger, but the powers at be.....
i searched this, on a whim, praying there was some sort of video about old internet asmr, and then i found out you uploaded this today. awesome
no you didnt

I love this video so far! I miss being able to mindlessly browse the internet this way and all the old aesthetics and design tropes from back then. You don't see many websites formatted that fun these days
Thanks!
53:35 HAHAH the instant cut was perfect . yeah i do not blame you skipping newgrounds
Used to be a great website, true that
My core childhood memories lulling me into a deep sleep is absolutely WILD. Thanks, Matt.
You’re welcome!
This is by far one of the best ASMR videos out there. Relaxing and in some weird way also comforting. Maybe it's because of all the memories these old sites bring to mind. Anyways, thanks a bunch and keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I'm too young to know what the old Internet was like back then. But, from what I've heard from my own mother, it was so new and seemed too cool to be true, like the future of curiosity was finally developed and you could have information at the click of a button. I see users her age talk about the early web being so nostalgic to many, and what it was like in the early days. Sometimes I wish I was born earlier during that time, and this vid captures my desire perfectly :)
I'll never forget being a little kid and watching a teacher on the school library computer dialing into the internet. What's odd, I think I remember browsing dozens upon dozens of sites back in the early 2000s, but now probably only visiting a core of about 7 or so on a daily basis. Everything got smooshed together.
Yeah dude there was a vast portion of places to be, equally cool and interesting, now that was a web for reals, now is more like a 4 strings attached to each other, eerie.
Monopolized?
Matt you continue to be in my top 5 greatest ASMRtists ever. Been listening since 2013 and you have consistently made good videos every single time. Thank you
Thank you very much!
Matt never fails to make fun and interesting content, keep it up man!
Thank you!
Oh my God I got a huge rush of nostalgia as soon as I saw Bonzai Buddy. Haven't had a genuine nostalgia feeling in a while, thanks Matt ❤
You’re welcome!
oh im sooooooo happy someone else has interest in asmr and old internet. this really scratches my brain itch
as someone who's always wanted to see what the internet used to look like, this scratches that itch I've had for years XD
sameee
What a trip this was (in a good way). Thanks for resurrecting some core memories! Time flies.
You’re welcome!
Matt, you're such a mad scientist💚
From creating your thumbnail to your ASMR ideas/character roleplays, everything is always running at 💯✨
this is fantastic. this is niche content but this made my day. I did a large research project about the history of the early internet as a fellowship and I had not heard about protoweb. thank you for the relaxation and for this amazing discovery
Thank you!
Wicked cool, old internet reminds me of Hypnospace Outlaw. Great video Matt!
Thanks!
Love the concept, more nostalgic content like that is always welcome ! Great video as always !
You're among the coolest ASMR content creators out there, Matt.
This was fantastic. I grew up using windows xp and whenever I have a gripe or I’m frustrated with windows 10 and 11 I always think to myself “I miss windows xp” haha. I still do. I’m waiting for Windows XP-II. And I miss the audible “click” sound effect from the OS too.
Thanks!
I love this so much. So creative and relaxing. I might be a bit younger, so i dont really remember the 90s internet but it still felt familiar. Thank you for this video
Thank you!
Omg the sailor moon ring of power.. that was what I went to often. They had coloring pages. And midi file songs and little gifs of the scouts transforming and fighting. I remember hopping from one geocities web page to another. Remember guestbooks? And the doll makers.. and chatrooms.. also there was a group board where you could draw with others at the same time. And see what art they did.. some were so talented.. and you could draw with them real time.
I was not ready for so many memories to be unlocked at one time 🥰
I usually just use ASMR to sleep and dont really care what the contents are, but youre videos genuinely make me look foward to going to sleep
I’m glad you like them!
I was searching for a lot of time this type of asmr, i always get sleepy with researching guides that my teachers make xD interesting and relaxing asmr as always
I love your video ideas and thumbnails. You are brilliant and so creative! ✨
Thank you!
My new favorite ASMR video how do you come up with your brilliant ideas Matt? You deserve 1 million subscribers
Thanks a bunch!
I love your channel! Always such high effort and creative uploads. Consistent quality is key for viewers to stay interested, and you’ve nailed it !!!
Good of you to put this out there. The devs'd probably be happy.
The nostalgia is insane.
Thx matt quality work as usual
what a blessing Matt, so excited to listen!!! Thanks so much for all you do 🎉🎉
You’re welcome!
I wish i could just go back to these times where people weren't assholes and the internet wasn't a wasteland.
And the internet was fun and exciting 😭
@@BeamerMT1979 exactly
@@Big_Jeevs ppl are assholes thanks to social medias
Web2 as become so outdated thats why its dying so web 3 will took over .
Also
Internet 2000s was pure gold 2015 onwards is when internet became standardized so it could centralized by social medias and corporate greed creating the dark age of conformity and ruin lives which lead to the shithole corporate hell that the internet is nowdays. 😂
I mean is it right to be born in 2008 mainly having 2010s nostalgia and i found the 2000s MUCH more a appealing ? .
Hope gods glory will make the internet decentralized again , and social medias returning to be primitive not distractfull , destruction of human decency ( society ) and more companys to cool down their evil greed , Y2k fruitiger aero style era to comeback evolved to look less dated .
@@Big_Jeevs The same song in dance but...
Corporations were always cold and a bit money hungry but they used to care about being good but in a matter of 10yrs they stopped when the industry changed and when the internet became more costly and standardized centralized , they jumped into the trend of , minimalist oversimplification , subscription pay walls & social medias exploding in popularity & phones became less good things to be addictive , it got worse since then ...
The internet sure was diff 10yrs & 20yrs even 30yrs ago and I pray for the old web to return.
@@Darkparadox64 agreed
amazing thumbnail, amazing video. your voice is wonderfully calming and smooth!
I love your 90s ASMR stuff. This was especially awesome.
That was what i needed
I LOVE THIS aesthetic
To Matt:
Good evening,
I would like to thank you enourmously for the effort and creativity, not to mention the obviously great taste you have for all that is interesting and calming.
I am having a blast with this one video, just as that one where you are unboxing Windows 95 or something like that I don't recall that perfectly.
Best regards,
Uli.
Thank you very much!
I love it when you do these videos
Thank yuo!
Your ideas are new and out of the box. Love it 💙⚡
Thank you!
That intro almost put me to sleep 😆 thank you very much for this
You’re welcome!
I was to young to feel nostalgic. My first interaction with a pc was in 2008. So it was change a bit. The internet i mean. Although there is a bit of nostalgia and curiosity. I started on the internet with the creepypasta listening. And i always was curious and loved when people described old sites and links and formats. Always made me curios how the internet used to be. As for nostalgic well it reminds me of those old creepypastas. I do love your voice. My favorite trigger,talking, whispering etc. anything related to voice asmr.
Shoutout to Cleo the cat, who is now 30 years old
YESSSSS ANOTHER ONE IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS HOLYYYYYYY
I liked this a lot. You have a very soothing voice and presence. Thank you. ^-^
Thank you!
was really hoping you'd end the video by downloading bonzi and destroying everything
I’m half asleep reading this and can’t stop wheezing thinking about it
Being 16, there is so many places in history I would want to visit. It feels unfair I didn’t get to see some of this stuff 😂
I love you for "showing" newgrounds. That and stick death were THE places to go. I shed a tear brother. Good times.
I love your ASMR videos man, They are so relaxing.
I watch them before going to sleep.
Thanks!
It’s super cool how all the early internet felt like a big toy and how everything had so much life and personality, super quality video thanks, sorry for bad English guys
I have started my career in the IT in the early 2000. I could have used such videos from time to time but had no broadband access and YT was not invented back then. I ended up with stress induced problems like drug abuse and depression. Discoverd asmr after long 16 years...
I got Win 98 flashbacks, kind of a shitty OS but that was still the time as Game makers did the experimental stuff and tried to make things possible!
A really good time to be around!!!
what a great concept! thanks!
Thank you!
Matt, I just wanted you to know that you're the reason I discovered Tool
Probably I would have heard of them otherwise but I first heard about them from your asmr cover (which is fantastic btw)
You holding bonzibuddy in your hand is absolute internet gold.
The earliest computer I used was a windows XP I am a 2000s kid but I’m sure I’ll still enjoy this video.
Just seeing the title I was already like "this is gonna be SO GOOD"
Love everything about this aesthetic
I love frutiger aero and Y2K things and this just made my night
I’m glad you liked it!
I missed you matt, so good to see you again
You have the perfect voice for nostalgia.
Wow this was amazing 😍😇 and the first anime page you clicked on , the anime is called RANMA HALF. I loved that little anime so much, so wholesome 😭😭
It's called Ranma One-Half. 👍 Was a huge fan myself
Thank you for the ASMR and showing this amazing project
Wonderful video concept and execution!
Does anyone else remember using Ask Jeeves before Google blew up as the biggest search engine?
I miss how fun the internet used to be. Everything is so bland nowadays
I miss the old newgrounds
The internet didn’t change, people did.
I love this video. I wasn't alive to experience the young internet, but I think it's pretty cool.
I was waiting for another one of these
This video is amazing, thanks for uploading
This is great so thanks Matt
Thank you!
@@MattasticASMR You’re welcome
Damn that intro sound gave me mad flashbacks
Dont get me started on how many hours i sank in Mahjongg and solitaire on windows 95, 98, and macintosh
That intro shot goosebumps through my body so hard i cried
The microphone and the video makes it as if the asmr was invented in the late 90s
Very creative idea!
I loved playing Hypno Space Outlaw because it has these same vibes, the internet felt way more personal back in the day
The website devoted to Cleo was so sweet i almost teared up
Must’ve been cool to experience the early days of the internet. The first piece of tech that I can remember having was the first iPod touch with a *colossal* 8 gigabytes of storage lol
Late to the lan party but this is amazing! As always, Matt outdoes himself
Peak internet experience ASMR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, if only the internet was that fast back in the day. 😂
Hey, it's Mike who was a big fan of "The Witness" video. This one came up in my recommendations todaym, and when I heard the voice I knew it was you but thought the channel name was different. I looked back through your recent videos and found the name-change one. Mattastic is a good name, because you are fantastic. Although etomologically I suppose Mattastic would mean "very Matt" or "in a Matt way", but those are true too. At least, I assume your name is really Matt. Anyway, what I need nowadays is some soft-spoken dialog to override anxiety rumination, and ambient sounds and story readings don't quite do it anymore, and there aren't enough documentaries, so I think your recent videos may be just the ticket. Thanks for making them... Voice acting also sounds interesting. I also listen to Sounds Curious, who is a voice actress, and did ASMR documentaries for a while. Sadly she;'s not doing them anymore, but I still keep listening to the old ones again. It sound like an interesting field with many different opportunities, so you may find something interesting. You could also do audiobooks, like Steve West (my favorite British narrator).
All of the nostalgia for all of the old people
This would be very nostalgic for me if i were alive back then
This is a certified tubular video.
wonderful idea. thank you.
Play happy, Puppy, games it brings back nostalgia. 2:38
Peak ASMR, prove me wrong
I think if you change the thumbnail to an image of the protoweb browser you’d get more clicks. Great video ❤️
Thanks!
amazing thumbnail omg
Hi matt, i would suggest turning down some of the lower frequencies in this video, it is difficult to hear what you are saying unless the volume is quite loud because the low frequencies of your voice drown out the pronunciation at quiet volumes.
Listening with headphones btw
Thank you for doing asmr that's not binaural, only one of my earbuds work so I haven't been able to watch you for a while
Did I say you could put me in the thumbnail?!!!?!?
But srsly, great video lol
Thanks buddy!
Its matt! Woah!!
We need a fully working internet archive where you can choose every year from the 90s-2016/17!!! With fully working websites as they were then. They would make bilions.
Hypnospace Outlaw is more realistic than I thought X)
Bonzi buddy is actually a very bad virus that looks fine but once you get it, it will go into your notes and storage And really just mess your stuff up
I been stickin around for a while. since 2016 I believe but nonetheless. quality every time. ❤
Thank you!
Im getting old 😭 we didnt have the internet back then but i used to play worms on my dads windows 97 computer lol
Thank you for this ❤
Thank you matt.
