For classical music, let’s quote this strange recording of Carmina Burana cond. by M Tilson Thomas.
I know both the score and the very most (commercial) recordings of the work, and this one is very particular for overemphasizing the low bass range. Doublebasses, drums… A rumbling that is quite disturbing because it quasi-constantly weightens the soudstage.
Actually, whatever the works (choirs, symphonies…) I know no other recording as deep and heavy as this one. Quite un-natural.
All the more, some moments are very impressive in the extreme low register.
Try Olim lacus colueram (track 13), 1’56-2’01. Not loud, but so deep and powerful (a sudden and incredible boost in the 20-50 Hz range, for a few seconds, according to my equalizer), as to really shake the walls. I first believed it was a earthquake!!!
