Hipposonic Studios

Hipposonic Studios is a music recording studio in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Originally founded in 1994 by Robert Darch, the studio moved its location in January 2004 from their Kitsilano neighbourhood to 16 East 3rd Ave, Vancouver and the new location was built by the staff under the guidance of world-renowned studio designer John Vrtacic. The studio has moved its location again but into the Old Mushroom Studio building at 1234 West 6th, Vancouver (Near Granville Island) in March 2010. The Old Mushroom Studios is still the same except the old lounge has now been reinvented to be a Mixing Room with a SSL 4000G+ Series Console.

The studio houses one mixing and overdubbing room with a Solid State Logic 4000G+ Series, and the old live rooms with a NEVE Console. Over the years Hipposonic has had a wide variety of clients, Canadian and international, including Tom Cochrane, Bif Naked, Delerium, Econoline Crush, Skinny Puppy, K-Os, Kinnie Starr, Lamb of God, Swollen Members, Wu-Tang Clan, Gob, Strapping Young Lad, Boom Desjardins, Marianas Trench, Daniel Wesley, Incura, Hedley, Louise Burns, The Latency, 22Century, 5440, Jakalope and many more.

In January 2006 the owner of Hipposonic, Rob Darch, purchased the property of Mushroom Studios. The historical building continues to operate as a studio, under the name Hippowest Music Ltd..
