Snippet Lab
We cut your record into short hooks and test which one actually stops the scroll before any spend goes out.
- Hook mapping from waveform
- Caption + on-beat text
- 6 variants per record
Editors who only cut rap go through your record bar by bar and find the hooks by ear. Software handles the trimming, the levels and the loop points, which is the part a machine is genuinely better at than a person.

Artists and labels already running on Lumina:












Five stages. Record goes in, clips come out, and you get a report that says which hook held attention and which one lost the room. The same five stages, written out in full, are on how a clipping campaign works.
Clips go out to the network. Then we watch which ones hold the room and which ones lose it.
We log the BPM and mark every bar where the energy jumps, which is the same pass a mix engineer makes before touching a fader.
We check your record against what's moving in rap right now, so the hook we lead with fits the lane it's going into.
Editors mark the hooks and the drops first, always by ear, then trim the cuts so each one loops back into itself cleanly rather than stopping dead. That's the difference between a viewer watching twice and a viewer scrolling past.
Send us the masters, the stems and any footage you have, and we build the asset bank from there.

A room of editors who only cut rap. Catalogue, live sets and studio rolls come back as posts that read like they came off a fan page rather than out of a marketing department.
Vetted hip-hop pages post your sound from real accounts with real audiences, with no bot farms, no view-bots and no takedowns, because every placement is cleared before it goes anywhere near a feed.
Live dashboards on saves, sound creations and retention, so you know which record to push to radio and which to shelve.
from WAV to Wave
Send the WAV, the visualiser, the phone footage or whatever exists, and we build the asset bank in 48 hours.
Six hook variants per record go live across seeded pages and the algorithm votes. We read the votes rather than arguing with them, so the variant that held retention gets the volume while the other five are quietly retired.
The hook that holds retention gets the volume, meaning hundreds of clips, creator pushes, and the sound page working as one destination instead of five.
Pre-saves, profile traffic and DSP links go into every caption, so views land where they pay.
Our editors came off artist channels and fan pages, so they know the difference between a drill edit and a boom-bap edit. That's why our clips read as fan-made rather than as an ad, and why they survive the first three seconds.
what it adds up to
Clipping only counts if the sound page fills up and the DSP numbers move with it, otherwise you've just bought impressions. Every campaign here gets measured on sound creations and saves rather than a screenshot of a view counter.

where the clips land
Volume gets split by where your record's audience actually sits. Drill skews TikTok and boom bap skews YouTube, so the campaign is weighted to match rather than sprayed evenly.
Sound-page seeding, duets, creator raids
46%Audio-original posts + collab reels
28%Official Artist Channel linked clips
19%Overflow volume on rising hooks
7%Each page is human-run, genre-tagged and audited quarterly for a real audience, and you get the post link for every placement, so you can open them, read the comments and check it yourself.
A drill record goes to drill pages, because matching the lane is the single biggest driver of watch-through we've measured.
Every placement uses your official sound, cleared before it posts, so creations pool on one page instead of splitting across five duplicates that each look like a small campaign.
A live sheet of every URL, page, post date and 72-hour performance, so nothing hides behind a summary number.
It runs the creator side of a campaign for you, producing a batch of native videos from real creators posted on their own pages in their own voice rather than one polished film. That's the only format a scrolling audience doesn't immediately clock as advertising and thumb past.
We handle the sourcing, the brief, the edit standard and the posting order, then report what each clip actually did. Ten angles on one record will outperform one expensive film that either works or doesn't, because you find out which angle landed instead of guessing afterwards.
A campaign takes one record, a video or a live set, cuts the hooks, posts the clips on creator accounts and reports verified views, with every clip tied to the official sound.
Views and streams are different things. Clips are cut and posted so the official sound is in the frame, and saves and streams get reported whenever we can see them, but we don't promise a Spotify number.
One record, the rights to use it and a view target. We match creators, cut the hooks and post, so you never have to build a clipper roster yourself.
It's a custom CPM, a set price per 1,000 verified views scoped per campaign rather than read off a rate card, which is why we ask about the record before quoting anything. Two things move it: how many approved clips you want and how wide we seed across the roster.
There's no retainer and no long contract. Send the record and the goal and you get a quote back with the deliverable count written down.
Briefing and creator matching come first, then clips land in waves, so you see early cuts while there's still time to steer tone before the bulk of the roster posts.
Give us the release date up front and we'll build the seeding schedule backwards from it, so the first wave is already live and pooling creations by the time the record drops.
You own the campaign output. Every creator signs a licence before they post, so anything you approve is cleared for your own channels.
Paid usage is agreed and priced separately up front, covering running a clip as an ad, whitelisting it, or using it past the campaign window, because that's what the creator is licensing to you.
You reject it and you don't pay for it. Approval is per clip, so nothing counts toward your deliverables until you've signed that specific clip off, which means a weak batch can't quietly eat the budget.
If the problem is direction rather than execution, we re-brief and the creator reshoots, and if a whole angle isn't landing we drop it and move those slots to the ones that are.
A marketplace hands you a list and the work becomes yours, meaning briefing, chasing, reviewing, rejecting and scheduling, then doing it all again next week when half those creators have gone quiet. An agency does that work and carries the result.
If you have an in-house team with time to run creators, a marketplace is cheaper, and if you want clips landing on a schedule without managing twenty people, that's the job we do.
Yes. Ad variants get briefed differently to organic clips, with a harder hook in the first second, a clearer artist moment and a cut that still reads with the sound off.
Tell us up front if clips are going into paid, since it changes both the brief and the usage licence we take from the creator.
