This is strange. Only a few of the fireworks had low frequencies. With
good headphones I can notice some of the deep ones. In fact there were
less big bombs this time than during the past years. If you download the
file you can hear some deep sound from minute 34-40. Most of them are
far to the west.
The recording is not filtered at all and no high dinamic compression.

Best regards,

Arnthor
