Neighbor advice requested

My neighbor keeps blasting soft jazz and elevator music into my courtyard 12 hours a day. I feel like I'm at an old folks home, only turned up to 11. It's really getting on my nerves. I've told them I need a break from the noise and they say okay but they never let up. I have a huge waterfall in my courtyard and I added a 2nd pump to make it faster and louder and usually that gave the message (and I turn it off as soon as they turn theirs off) lately it hasn't made a difference though.

I am thinking of getting some rap or something (preferably with explicit lyrics) to send the message. I think a war with neighbor is very unwise, but honestly I am so fed up today I am not sure what to do. I figure a 24 hr cool down period is what I will give myself and it's still up tomorrow I will figure something out.

I have seen great advice here so if someone has a good idea I would appreciate it. Also what would be a good highly offensive, obnoxious CD that is not so offensive it would be bad for small children to hear (my other neighbors) but irritating enough old people would cringe horribly at the sound of it? Thanks
 
Kidz Bop! All the ***** music heard on today's radio, but edited with ratty little punks singing it!

EDIT: Damn you Hammercurl!
 
I have discussed it with them 5 times, bringing them into the courtyard to demonstrate, etc. Kidz bop is brilliant! I will do it.

'Smooth jazz isn't supposed to be "blasted", lol. Good luck.'

You are so right. this is half the problem, I could deal with aerosmith being blasted occasionally even though I'm not a huge fan.
 
Do what i do, visit their door and knock, then *punch* it. Shit, i have been watching too much of The Shield. I damn near kicked the fuckers door open.

What are you talking about? You kicked a door in for loud music?

Dude, he was watching the shield.. If that doesn't make you want to get your vigilante on, I dont know what will.. 🙂
 
I'd create my own cd with one hit wonders on it. Classics like the macarena, mmm-bop from Hansen, Achy Breaky heart, i'm a barbie girl..... and others. Nothing seems to drive people as crazy as subpar songs that they've already heard a thousand times.
 
If I had gone to see them 5 times, the last convo we would have is "If it happens again I will not come back but will send the cops." I just view your plan as childish. Give them a proper warning (which you have) then let others do their job. Are there others there that you would disturb besides your target audience? If so then you are no better than them.

Maybe, but hey, OP, talk to this dude he might have a few tracks to help you retaliate.
 
bagpipe CDs, I don't think it gets better than that. I borrowed another neighbor's bollywood CD so I will see how it goes. They don't answer anymore when I knock on their front door but I did hop the fence and knock on their glass door right outside their kitchen which got their attention so I will give that a shot.
 
Play something like Fredrik Thordendal - "Antanca - The End (The Uncompounded Reality)".
Meshuggah also works well.

Both are very heavy metal.
Calling the cops is still the best idea.
 
There is a song on one of the kids show that is called "the song that never ends", it repeats the same line over and over. Get a copy and record it multiple times on a CD play continuously for hours. They'll get the message.
