Fireworks (Binaural)

7/4/2020

A binaural field recording of this year's fireworks, decidedly more intense than previous years. Listen with headphones or earbuds low enough to mix in your local sounds.

Note the isobel levels (areas of equal sound intensity):

• Background distant continuous "thunder", a "cloud" of sound delays/echoes that sometimes commingles with wind noise
• Middle ground within 50 feet where fireworks exploding
•  Foreground: traffic noise, voices, foot steps, air conditioners
