In celebration of its 10th anniversary, Apple Music is making a major investment in the creators who power its platform. The company has announced the launch of a new, state-of-the-art global hub for artists in the heart of Los Angeles, designed to be a vibrant center for creativity, collaboration, and connection with fans.
Opening this summer, the new facility is a sprawling three-story, 15,000-square-foot campus. It’s packed with features designed to help artists bring their musical visions to life, including two cutting-edge radio studios capable of broadcasting in Spatial Audio, a large soundstage for live performances, and a dedicated mixing room for creating immersive Spatial Audio tracks. The LA hub will serve as the flagship for a worldwide network of creative spaces, joining existing locations in cities like New York and Tokyo, with more to come.
But the anniversary celebrations don’t stop there. Apple Music Radio is rolling out a week of special programming to commemorate the milestone. Listeners can tune in for a special broadcast with hosts Zane Lowe and Ebro Darden as they look back on the last 10 years of music. An eight-hour special will highlight some of the most significant artist moments on the platform, and a live broadcast will feature artists who have played a key role in Apple Music’s journey.
For the listeners who have been along for the ride, Apple Music is also launching a couple of new features. The service will unveil a countdown of the 500 most-streamed songs of the last decade, offering a nostalgic trip through the biggest hits. And for a more personal look back, a new “Replay All Time” feature will allow subscribers to see and listen to their most-played songs since they first joined Apple Music. It’s a celebration of the music that has been the soundtrack to our lives for the past 10 years.
