LUNY TUNES are the architects of the most significant crossover movement in Latin music in several decades. They are responsible for the famous electric rhythm of the biggest Reggaeton hits: Daddy Yankee's “Gasolina”, Wisin Y Yandel's “Rakata” and “Mayor Que Yo.”

The duo also executive produced Wisin Y Yandel's “Pal' mundo” album, which yielded 7 hit singles that landed at the top of the Latin Billboard charts. In 2006 they received several music awards: Premios Lo Nuestro, Latin Grammy, Latin Billboard and Premios Juventud, among others.
