Here's the first half after some processing. I've used a multi-band compressor to try to take out just the low frequency boom without scrubbing all the low frequency energy out of the track.
I've also compressed a high frequency band to tame some of the high-frequency peaks in the signal, but again without altering any more than I absoutely have to. MBC's are enormously powerful tools which give you quite a sophisticated control over the sound but you need to use them carefully.
The high peaks are a different kind of problem, and one where the audio engineer quickly strays into artistic decisions about phrasing. I've tried to subtly knock a bit off the top without altering the feel.
There's also a little bit of reverb.
