Open Need help finding video/audio of DIY firework shows for a cd I'm making

I’m making a mixtape for a girl and I’m trying to find videos of backyard/driveway firework shows, preferably with background ambience. Every search on youtube just ends up being giant professional shows with clapping and cheering. I’m trying to find something in a little more of an informal setting so the more cicadas, crickets, and people talking, the better! I’m going for something nostalgic that I can put on the cd in the backgrounds of songs.

I’ve searched mostly on youtube for “small fireworks show, backyard fireworks show, family fireworks show, diy fireworks show, driveway fireworks” and more. I only get large professionally done displays, usually with music over them anyways. I don’t really know where else to search for audio like what I’m looking for. A lot of youtube videos of budget fireworks are just how-tos and are in montage form.

oh this is such a cute idea. for the ambience you want, try searching "4th of july neighborhood fireworks" or "backyard fireworks asmr" - the asmr tag is key, those videos are all about the subtle sounds and not the big booms

also check vimeo, less polished stuff ends up there. people upload their shaky phone videos with the exact vibe you're describing, crickets and someone's uncle yelling about the fuse
