He became interested in music and symphony orchestras at the age of five. Soule was born 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.
