The audio titled "May 9th Fireworks" begins with the distant crackling sound of fireworks exploding in the sky. The spectacle is unfolding in the open expanse of a field, as suggested by the echoing pops and bangs that fill the air. The intensity and frequency of the sound fluctuates, painting an aural picture of fireworks bursting at different altitudes and distances. The field recording captures the full range of sounds associated with a fireworks display. There are the initial launching sounds as the fireworks are shot into the sky, followed by the suspenseful pause before they explode in a crescendo of noise. You can hear the high-pitched whistle of some fireworks as they streak through the air, while others boom and echo with a deep, resonant sound. Interspersed with the fireworks, there's the occasional sound of a salute - a loud bang followed by a crackling echo, like a tribute to the spectacle in the sky. This adds an extra level of drama
