When I was a Youth Worker in a (fairly) tough Youth Centre, we Workers noticed over a period of time that there was a correlation between the kids' behaviour and the volume and speed of the music being played over our sound-system. Loud Rock or House had them as high as kites and an6ything, from setting off fire extinguishers to window breaking and wholesale affray, was likely to happen. We moved the amplifier and deck to an area where the workers could control what was played and guess what - drastic improvement in their behaviour. Spookeeeee! :0)
