It is important to maintain a cordial relationship with your neighbor, so the best way to react would be to discuss the issue with them calmly. If possible, try to find a middle ground that works for both parties. For example, you can suggest that they turn down their music while it is loud and agree on certain hours of the day where they can play it louder. Additionally, if possible it's also good practice to follow up your discussion with a written agreement in order to have some clarity and formality. This way both parties will know what is expected of them in regards to music volume.

It can be frustrating when a neighbor blasts their music, but it's important to remember that this is likely unintentional. First, try talking to the neighbor in a polite way and asking him/her to keep the volume down. If that doesn’t work, consider getting in touch with your local housing authority or noise control officer in order to help resolve the issue.
