Same with me. However, I prefer the music with no vocals and even the classical music when I am in an MRI. And I play a CD of calming music or sounds of nature all night on repetitive setting while I sleep.

Music doesn’t trigger my seizures. It relaxes me

I was going to ask if it were a particular type of music video, but if you had one while listening to a CD, that is a different story.

What type of music were you listening to on the CD?

And does it always happen when you play that particular CD or were other things going on to raise your stress levels on that day?

As for the one you during the Super Bowl halftime show, there were lots of things going on during that show, so there are lots of possible triggers that would not have to be the music itself during that show. There was all kinds of action and varying lighting and singers during the various songs. They even had variations of musical instruments playing during the different songs. It would be tough to pick something in particular from the halftime show (unless you already knew your triggers).

So many things can be triggers for individuals, I would focus on the CD you were listening to when that seizure was triggered because that has only the auditory potential triggers (compared to a music video or the halftime show). If you frequently have listened to that CD before, and it did not trigger a seizure on the other times, then the music itself might not have been the seizure. Unfortunately, we each have to play detective (with the possible help of family members or friends who have been present when we have had enough seizures) to determine what particularly the triggers are.

Pop Music usually relaxes me. But Heavy Metal / Hard Rock can sometimes trigger them . But that’s a rare trigger

If I were to go to a club/concert it would trigger me. The loud thumping and blinking lights would put me in a seizure in record time. The loud music by itself would do it.
