    Of all the Trap shoots I've ever been at, they never played any music.
    .
    Also, thanks for the Wiki snippet, the last thing I want, is to have phonk in my google algorithm, if I were to search it myself.

    You should be regularly clearing cookies and browsing history anyways. This mix is much better much jazzier much more brass different DJ and samples for the phonk. THE END OF UNDERGROUND | PHONK FRIDAY Season 7 Ep. 7 | Ponsuda | Live DJ Set

    Plus the bass is better

    Country, classic rock, sports or an intelligent talk radio host definitely make tasks like reloading, painting, etc. more enjoyable.

    Nothing but 'Flight Of The Valkyries' for me. I keep it on a loop when reloading...........

    Now...if you said Funk (1970's)....I'm there. Phonk just isn't gonna cut it for this old dog.

    Nice Brass...case prep and music go together...I prefer silence when I'm actually loading power/boolits though...I need to concentrate.

    I have no sound system in my shop/reloading room at all. Very much on purpose.
    I have a Bose amp and speaker system in my truck and a 700 watt Yamaha amp that runs my home theater system with Boston Acustic speakers.
    Musc is Good, from Abba to Zz Top, all types, Hip Hop is not good by a class, offensive and garbage. I threw a guy off my boat 9 miles out, told him to shut that crap off, didn't, So I picked him up over my head and threw him over board. Came back in 30 minutes, he turned it off.

    I like reloading with 70s funk, sounds good too with the subwoofer, and sometimes blue grass and celtic music too.

    I listen to all kinds of classic rock and country, but for reloading, it is usually Hank jr or Lynyrd Skynyrd.
    Due to the price of primers, warning shots will no longer be given!

    From Hank to Hendrix and Vivaldi, when I'm sitting in front of one of my Hollywood Gun Shop presses I always have music on. I'm usually out there every morning waiting on the better half to get up working on processing or loading one of the many calibers we shoot. I really like "vintage" presses and music, they don't make stuff like that anymore.

    I listened to the four seasons by Vivaldi last weekend. I love the transition in mood from autumn to winter.

    I have a radio going in the background out in the shop.
    It's never too loud to drown out any other sounds or be a distraction.

    I switch between the classic rock from the 60-70s I grew up with, or the classical station that
    plays the 17th century orchestra stuff like Bach, Beethoven, and their peers.

    Audio books from the library. Crime podcast or pandora. I get bored too quickly and have to change stations.

    I have a radio in my wood working shop, another in the metal working shop, and another in the reloading shop. They are all tuned to the same Classic Country station and they are never turned off.

    I'm cooking onions with ground beef and playing The Best of Piano. Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, Bach. Classical Music for Studying and Relaxation softly in the background.

    Fffwwwooop!!

    The gas bottle sputtered its last.
    As i change it I can feel the humid warmth of this first spring rain. Relit, the turkey fryer quickly heats the large cast iron skillet.
    Guess I'm not powder coating bullets tonight.

    I love cooking on the patio.

    *edit. I made a better picture of the fire

    I've been listening to Bob Seger quite a bit while reloading. Occasionally some Kansas or King Crimson. I like a pretty wide variety of music, but some just works better than others as background music for reloading.

    No matter what I'm doing, there's a radio doing it's thing. I need background noise to keep myself focused. Old country usually gets it done. There's two cents.
