if the noise is coming from the brakes then it sounds like the pad indacators,lack of lube on pads or cheap pads.hope i can help. p.s grooved rotors can make noise to if the pads have worn into them.

Check all that Dave has mentioned, cheap pads are high inn resins, this is the bonding agent, this can make the brakes squeal as the tend to glaze up and give the pads less to grip on.
