From ‘Shut Up and Dance’ to Benson Boone: Captain Cuts on Crafting Iconic Pop

🎙️ From ‘Shut Up and Dance’ to Benson Boone: Captain Cuts on Crafting Iconic Pop

Season 2 of Producer Points kicks off with the hit-making duo Captain Cuts — Ben Berger and Ryan Rabin — whose songwriting and production credits include Walk the Moon, Bebe Rexha, Benson Boone, Halsey, The Chainsmokers, Tove Lo, Grouplove, and many more.

In this episode, host Justin Gammella sits down with the longtime friends and collaborators to unpack how they’ve maintained success across over a decade in pop music. They discuss their evolution from managing and touring in a band to becoming in-demand producers and songwriters, how their surprise artist deal with Epic Records came to be, and the balance between being creators and curators.

We dive deep into:🎵 The making of Benson Boone’s “There She Goes” — from piano jams to tempo-switching choruses
🎵 Building Bebe Rexha’s “I Got You” and the wild vocal production journey behind it
🎛️ Favorite gear, plugins, and how they split creative roles as a duo
🎧 Their approach to demo mixes, final bounce philosophies, and vocal chain secrets
🔥 Plus: Their first studio was raided by a SWAT team?! Yep.

This episode is packed with insight, stories, and real talk from two of the best in the business.
