New residents have been slammed for complaining about an long-standing Perth nightclub playing loud music late at night.

A note posted on a bulletin board in the lobby of an apartment block on Aberdeen Street, Northbridge encouraged residents to call the council to complain.

The block is across the road from Jack Rabbit Slim's nightclub, which has operated under various names for more than 20 years.

A note posted on a bulletin board in the lobby of an apartment block in Perth encouraged residents to call the council to complain about a noisy nightclub

'If anyone would like to put in noise complaints for Jack Rabbit Slim's (nightclub) for their excessive noise during the weekdays, you can contact Perth City Council,' the note read, followed by the council's phone numbers.

A neighbour attached a sticky note asking if it was the noise and vibration they could hear at 2-3am some nights.

Another replied saying the noise went until 5am on Tuesday and 3am on Wednesday last week.

The note drew the ire of local DJ Tim Lanzon, known as DJ Timbee, who accused them of trying to destroy a community that existed long before they moved there, in a lengthy Facebook rant.

He got some support from Ace Basik, who lived in the apartment block, who said his flat bared the brunt of the noise because it directly faced the club but it wasn't that bad.

'I accept the fact that I live in a nightlife precinct. Rent is cheaper and houses are bigger in the burbs I wouldn't be here if I didn't actively choose to be here,' he said.

Mr Basik posted a photo of himself making some edits to the notice, including blacking out the phone numbers and writing that his neighbours 'probably shouldn't have moved into the nightlife capital of WA'.

Mr Lanzon said the unhappy residents should have considered the noise before they moved near a venue that had been active for more than 20 years.

'Northbridge has seen the closure of a number of venues as residential rate payers outnumber the voting power of venues more than 10-fold,' he wrote.

'They seek to actively target and destroy a community which was there long before these whinging yuppies took up residence in a completely inappropriate location.'

The entertainer said complaints he had heard from new residents in the past five years included their children needing to sleep and them wanting to sleep with their balcony door open.

'You relinquished your right to complain about noise when you sought out a lease next to a famous nightspot,' he wrote in response.

'I have to assume that you were aware that your property backed onto a bar or nightclub and it didn't just appear one day as you were watching Channel 7's Sunrise while eating your almond-milk paleo gluten-free porridge.'

Mr Lanzon said while some people would always complain, he was concerned others who didn't would be spurred into action by a loud minority.

'People who were not previously annoyed by the sound would likely see this and then think "you know what, yes, it should be quiet in Northbridge" and climb on the w***er-wagon until Jack Rabbit and every other venue in Northbridge is either closed or begins trading under a silent disco model.'

He had significant support from music fans in comments to the post, which has received more than 500 likes and been shared more than 100 times.

Mr Lanzon even got support from Perth City councillor Reece Harley who wrote: 'I completely agree with you. If you're seeking peace and quiet don't move next door to a nightclub. Period.'

One commenter pointed out that when the venue was renamed and renovated recently it made changes to its sound system, and installed acoustic engineered ceiling solutions and wall treatments to dampen the noise.

Others said they lived in the area and didn't mind the noise or it wasn't that bad, and called on the council to ignore complaints.
