PluggnB Cook Up Video Editorial

Splice — PluggnB Cook Up ft. Swoope Post-Production Editorial

PluggnB is one of those sounds that feels immediately familiar and completely fresh at the same time. That tension between nostalgic R&B warmth and hard-hitting trap energy is exactly what makes it interesting, and Grammy award winning producer Swoope is one of the best people alive to break it down.

Splice brought me in to edit this cook up built around the Soul Surplus "PluggN' Play" sample pack, created by Swoope himself. The pack blends pitched soulful vocals, electric pianos, and synth leads with punchy distorted trap drums crafted by fellow Grammy winner Elvin "Wit" Shahbazian. Two heavyweights, one pack, and a cook up that needed to do justice to both.

The editorial challenge with a genre-focused cook up like this is making sure the music does the talking without losing the educational thread. Producers watching want to be inspired and informed at the same time. The edit was shaped to move with the groove of the session, keeping the energy consistent with the sound itself, smooth on the surface with real punch underneath.

For music platforms, sample pack brands, and content studios looking for a video editor and creative director with experience producing high quality music content featuring Grammy winning talent, this project is a solid example of that work. Editorial that serves the artist, the product, and the audience without compromising any of the three.
