Description of noise music

Noise music is a genre of music that emphasizes the use of noise and dissonance, rather than melody, harmony, or rhythm, as its primary sonic elements. It often incorporates unconventional or non-musical sounds, such as static, distortion, feedback, and electronic interference, as well as traditional musical instruments played in unconventional ways. Noise music can be traced back to early experimental composers, such as Luigi Russolo and John Cage, and has since evolved to include a wide range of styles and approaches, from harsh noise and power electronics to ambient and drone. It is often associated with the DIY and underground music scenes, and has been used as a form of protest and political expression.
