Firework sound effects from the back garden to the big public display. Rockets whistling up. Firecrackers going off. Crackles, fizzes and the heavy thump of shells bursting high overhead. Some of it is close and clean for picking out single bursts. Some is the whole night out, crowd and all, recorded at celebrations from Malta to China.
These recordings are made for film, games, and media, captured with clarity and range in mind. Big bangs, mostly. For even more sonic firepower, Explosions and Fire sit next door.
