You know that feeling when your brain is a browser with too many tabs open? The hum of anxiety, the ping of notifications, the sheer mental static? I lived there. My search for a digital "mute" button led me down a weird and wonderful path, ending in a place I never expected.
It all started with a search for something I'd never heard of: ASMR
That search led me to a YouTube channel dedicated to the sound of a chocolate keyboard. No, really.
I’m talking about Engyclick. And if you’re a creator, a student, someone with anxiety, or just a person who appreciates the art of sound, you need to know about it.
More Than a YouTube Channel: A Sound Sanctuary
Engyclick isn't just another channel. It’s a meticulously curated library of auditory experiences designed to do very specific things: calm you down, zip you into focus, or transport you somewhere else entirely. The genius is in the purity. Most videos are "no-talking," offering you an uninterrupted sound bath. No ads, no chatter, just immersion.
A Tour of My Favorite Engyclick Sounds
So, what can you actually listen to? Here’s a peek at what’s on my frequent playlist:
The Viral Chocolate Keyboard ASMR: This is what hooked me. The sound is a soft, deep, rhythmic tapping that is inexplicably satisfying.
It’s my go-to for writing sessions. It doesn’t just mask distraction; it seems to organize my thoughts.
Nature Soundscapes That Actually Work: I’ve tried a lot of "forest ambience" videos. Many sound like a 10-second loop. Engyclick’s recordings feel alive. The rustle of leaves, the babble of a brook—it’s nuanced and layered. I use this for meditation or when I need a five-minute mental vacation.

A Creator's Sound Effect Goldmine: As a blogger who occasionally dabbles in video, free, high-quality sound effects are a godsend. Engyclick offers a massive library on sites like Pixabay with everything from realistic urban sounds to subtle ambient foley.
Where to Find the Magic: It’s Not Just YouTube
This is a key part of why Engyclick is so brilliant. The content is spread across platforms to suit your needs.
YouTube: For the full immersive, often visual, experience.
SoundCloud: This was a game-changer for me. Having the tracks on SoundCloud is perfect for when I just want the audio, saving data and allowing for eyes-closed listening.
Pixabay/Freesound: For downloading free assets for your projects.
The Final Verdict: Why This Matters
In a digital world that often feels loud and chaotic, Engyclick is a curated quiet space. It’s a tool for mental well-being as much as it is for creativity.
So, I challenge you: Go to Engyclick's YouTube channel or find them on SoundCloud. Pick a sound—maybe the famous chocolate keyboard, a gentle rain, or a cosmic ambient track. Put on your headphones, close your eyes, and just listen for five minutes.
Then, come back here and tell me: what did it feel like?
