About
Soulistic360 Recording & Production Studio was created to provide a premium creative environment where music, media, and visual production can be developed with intention.
Located in the Chicago Southland, Soulistic360 RPS is built for artists, musicians, creators, brands, and organizations that need more than a room. The studio offers a professional space for recording, rehearsal, live performance recording, livestreams, LED wall video content, and select private creative events.
At its core, Soulistic360 RPS is about quality, preparation, and creative excellence. Every session, rehearsal, production, and event is approached with care so creators have the right environment to bring their work to life.
From the full SSL console to the LED wall capabilities, from the sound of the room to the feel of the space, Soulistic360 RPS is designed for people who take their craft seriously.
Arnell Newman
Founder, Producer & Engineer
Arnell Newman is the founder of Soulistic360 Recording & Production Studio and the creative and technical force behind the studio’s sound-centered vision.
As a producer and engineer, Arnell brings a deep respect for music, craft, and the recording process to every session. His work is grounded in technical precision, creative instinct, and a clear understanding of what artists need in order to feel prepared, supported, and fully present in the studio.
Arnell created Soulistic360 RPS to offer artists, musicians, producers, podcasters, and creative teams access to a professional recording and production environment in the Chicago Southland. His vision was to build more than a studio room. He wanted to create a space where serious creators could record, rehearse, produce, perform, collaborate, and bring their ideas to life with the right tools, atmosphere, and support.
At the center of that vision is a commitment to quality. From the control room and SSL console to the live production room, modular stage, isolation booths, LED wall capabilities, and collaboration lounge, Arnell’s approach reflects the belief that the space should elevate the work.
Whether supporting a recording session, shaping a production, preparing for a live performance recording, or helping clients think through the best setup for their project, Arnell brings a calm, focused, and intentional presence to the studio experience.
