NOISE Music is a music programme that connects creative young people with artists and musicians who make the kind of music that they listen to. We offer our participants the opportunity to express their creativity and musicality, to collaborate with artists and other young people, and to have their music heard.
In turn, NOISE Music develops platforms through which young people’s work can be shared, and provides them with performance opportunities. The programme is delivered in the community through workshops that have clearly defined aims and outcomes. The NOISE Music team is passionate about developing long standing connections in the community through out-reach work. You can find out more about NOISE Music and see who is on the team

NOISE Music has created a team of incredible DJs and musicians to work on an exciting music project with young people in South Dublin County. We are now looking for more musicians and DJs to add to our team and work with us delivering workshops in DJing, rapping, singing, song-writing, producing and beat-making.
Musicians’ careers take many different paths for all sorts of reasons. We support and celebrate this. You don’t need to have a music qualification, or a university degree or college education, to apply to be part of the NOISE Music team. You do need to have experience working collaboratively on music, and it is best if collaboration is at the core of what you do. Even if you’ve never taken a music lesson in your life - we want to hear from you!
NOISE Music is for young people aged 14 - 18 in South Dublin County with an interest in DJing, singing, rapping & making beats in styles like hip hop, techno & house music. They don’t need to have any experience making music or playing an instrument to take part in NOISE Music, all they need is a passion for music and creativity.
NOISE Music is a partnership between CONTACT Studio and Music Generation South Dublin. It is funded by Music Generation.
NOISE is South Dublin County's youth arts programme. The programme is delivered by a team of musicians and DJ’s who are at the forefront of Irish hip hop and electronic music, supported by experienced youth music facilitators and youth workers. It was developed in consultation with Lorraine Maher of IAmIrish.
NOISE Music welcomes applicants from all backgrounds particularly those who have experienced social and/or economic barriers to employment in music.
