The finished game features an untraditional score incorporating ambient background sounds (like wind blowing and ocean waves) into the music and utilizing a more mellow orchestral sound. Soule was promptly given the task by Square to score Secret of Evermore. Soule began working at Square in Seattle only two weeks after first submitting his demo tapes. Square very much appreciated the portfolio he does not believe that LucasArts ever listened to his tapes as they had a "no unsolicited package" policy. Soule sent the tape to LucasArts and Square. After completing high school, he took a year to create a portfolio showcasing what he felt video game scores should sound like. While playing video games as a child, Soule came to believe that the experience they created could be greatly enhanced by having a better musical score. He was split between trying to become a concert pianist and a composer when he grew up he ended up deciding to become a composer once he realized how difficult it would be to do both. He claims to have earned the equivalent of a master's degree in composition before completing high school however, as he never enrolled in the school, he did not earn a degree. Soule began taking piano lessons at an early age and became entranced with music, even writing music notation in the margins of his math homework after his teachers and his father realized his talent, he began taking private lessons with professors from Western Illinois University when he was in sixth grade. He became interested in music and symphony orchestras at the age of five.
Soule was born in 1975 in Keokuk, Iowa to a public school music teacher father and a graphic designer mother.
Several of Soule's soundtracks have been created with the help of his brother, Julian.
While many of his works are orchestral, he considers himself someone who creates more than just one type of music. Soule's works have been played in several live concerts such as the Symphonic Game Music Concert in Germany and the international Play! A Video Game Symphony concert series. DirectSong was subject to a class action lawsuit in 2015 but remained active until the late 2010s. In 2005, he founded DirectSong, a record label that published digital versions of his soundtracks as well as those of classical composers. In 2000, he left to form his own music production company, Soule Media, now called Artistry Entertainment. After finishing the soundtrack to Secret of Evermore in 1995, he left to join Humongous Entertainment, where he composed for several children's games as well as Total Annihilation, his first award-winning score. He became an employee of Square in 1994 after several years of private composition studies. He has composed soundtracks for over 60 games and over a dozen other works during his career, including The Elder Scrolls, Guild Wars, Icewind Dale, and the Harry Potter series.
