You could politely confront your neighbor and ask him to stop blasting his music, or you could call your local authorities to issue a noise violation. Alternatively, you can try investing in some noise-reducing headphones to drown out the music.

Before confronting your neighbor, it might be helpful to determine if the music is coming from inside or outside of his home. If the music is coming from inside his house, you can first talk with him respectfully about your concern. Offer to exchange contact information so that if his noise level becomes a regular issue, you can reach out directly for further support and advice.
If the sound is emanating from outside his home, there may be policies in place which will enable you to take further action. Check with your local city or town hall for more information and resources.  In either scenario it would be beneficial to provide documentation of when and how often the music disturbs you in order to substantiate any requests for relief or assistance from authorities.
