To celebrate its 10-year milestone, Apple Music has opened a brand-new, state-of-the-art creative studio in Los Angeles—its most ambitious project yet. This new facility aims to empower artists with cutting-edge tools, foster innovation in audio, and deepen fan engagement.
A Creative Hub for the Next Decade
Spanning over 15,000 square feet across three floors, the new LA studio is more than just a recording space—it’s a complete creative ecosystem designed for artists. Key highlights include:
- Two advanced radio studios with Spatial Audio and versatile setups.
- 4,000 sq. ft. soundstage for live shows, shoots, and fan events.
- Spatial Audio mixing room with a 9.2.4 PMC setup.
- Media labs for photography, video editing, and real-time content creation.
- Private isolation booths for songwriting, podcasting, and interviews.
- A-List and Archive Corridors, celebrating Apple Music’s legacy.
The new LA studio joins a growing network of Apple Music creative hubs worldwide, including New York, Tokyo, Berlin, Paris, and Nashville. More are planned soon, reinforcing Apple’s artist-first approach globally.
