Bombing ISIS Island

From the video one can see a number of bombs bursting simultaneously in pairs, as well they might if dropped simultaneously.
That led me to wondering if there is an advantage in detonating bombs in carefully spaced or sequenced patterns to enhance blast effect by simultaneous detonation.
Is this technique used? Artillery do similar tricks with simultaneous arrival of shells, why not the Air Force?
