How about a discussion of the positive and negative sides of it; as slugster points out in the answer given? What effects can it have? What are the things to watch out for? Effects of different types of music?

@RoryAlsop, the difference in the question is fundamental. The question you link to is not for people to listen to 'while' practicing. This asks for passive listening, not about playing as a compliment to the practice.

comment What do I need to keep in mind when picking a martial art as a bouncer?
I have to agree with @Trevoke, on Systema. I met some Russians who did it, and boy it was to the point and not unsophisticated. It is not too violent like MMA which can get you into legal problems if used. If the police come and see a bunch of bloody drunks, you can easily get locked up. If there was not so much of a history and heritage issue it should be more noted. It is natural as noted above. The moves are intuitive and become easily second nature-important.
