“turn down” isn’t about the volume of the music btw.
As described at Wiktionary [0] - it's an idiomatic way of saying that you're going to lower the volume through use of a control to do that. The context that was used has nothing to do with party.

EDIT: My bad, thought it was in response to...
> I guess it will mostly reflect the musical taste of assholes who turn their music up loud. Hmm, but maybe all culture works like that.
> At its core, turn down for what is a phrase used to promote having a good time. The phrase itself implies that there is no reason to turn down and stop partying.
But in my experience, party intensity and music volume are generally correlated, so you would probably turn down the former by turning down the latter.
