? WHAT IS PONYTAIL-FREE ?
______________________________

We opened the studio in the east end of Toronto two years ago as a place for good bands to make great records. Where musicians can be comfortable, at ease, and can focus on the music rather than following a click track or watching the clock. We wanted to help make creative, exciting recordings where the end always justifies the means and the recording process complements the music. In two eerily hi-fi party rooms filled with our best flea market treasures and audiophile oddities, we've worked on hundreds of releases for labels big and small, and we're ready to make yours the best thing you've worked on.

Take a look around the site (to the left), have a listen to some stuff we've worked on (to the right) and please email us some demos if you want us to check out your tunes.
