What RHC Music does

RHC Music is a Toronto-based recording studio and production company founded and operated by Ross Hayes Citrullo, a 3x JUNO-nominated producer and Emmy Award-winning re-recording mixer. The firm runs two divisions from a single studio at 388 Carlaw Ave., Unit 301: RHC Music handles pre-production, songwriting, production/tracking, and mixing for albums, EPs, and singles, while the wholly-owned RHC Sound division delivers post-production audio services — dialog editing, ADR, voiceover recording, SFX editing/creation, Foley, and re-record mixing in 5.1 and Stereo for broadcast and web. The studio is built around a professional signal chain featuring an SSL console, Burl Audio converters, Neumann microphones, Avid Pro Tools, Waves plugins, Sonarworks SoundID, and premium outboard equipment from HiWATT, JetSlide, and Newfangled Audio.

The customer base spans independent and emerging artists (The Commoners, Bywater Call, Spencer Mackenzie, JJ and the Pillars, Taming Sari, Sandra Bouza), established Canadian acts (Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar, Julian Taylor Band, Mark Kelso, Serena Ryder, William Prince, Donovan Woods, Broken Social Scene, The Beaches), enterprise music clients (ALEXISONFIRE), and broadcast/sports properties (Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Sabres, NHL). Aggregate streams on worked productions exceed 60 million, with multiple #1 chart positions in Canada and the UK and JUNO nominations spanning 2021, 2023, and 2025.

RHC Music operates as a professional services studio on a project-based, quote-only pricing model (rates disclosed on inquiry). Customer acquisition is sales-led through manager Bill Miller at Sharp 9 Music, direct industry networking, and organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, X). Geographic reach covers Canada, the UK, Europe (including Germany), and the USA. The company is privately held and bootstrapped, with 1–10 employees and no institutional funding disclosed. Co-production arrangements with Gypsy Soul Records and operational referrals to Infrasonic Mastering round out a partner-driven ecosystem around the studio.
