Will this soundproofing idea work/fail and why?

Hi guys. Recently someone in my neighborhood started playing music really loud even throughout the night, and despite the distance, the bass travels far and just goes right through my walls. Talking it out peacefully didn't work, so I'm thinking of soundproofing. The problem is, I live in a house with brick walls, and every room has a window facing outside, and I don't want to seal that up if I can help it. That's why I have an idea about making an outdoor wall in the yard instead, illustrated by the following pictures:

I don't know if this will work or not, and if it does, to what degree. I'd like to hear any advice about soundproofing or the science. I really need to get a solution for this problem. Thank you very much.

Help me to identify a noise that is 24/7 present in the apartment, low frequency humming

THE NOISE

What could it be?? It comes from below so either something in the floor (pipes ?) or the downstairs neighbours has some kind of a device
