Luny Tunes are a Dominican reggaeton production duo composed of Francisco Saldaña (Luny) (born June 23, 1979) and Víctor Cabrera (Tunes) (born April 12, 1981) . Both members were born in the Dominican Republic and grew up in the Boston metropolitan area until they moved to Puerto Rico where their success started with the help of DJ Nelson as their executive producer and promoter. They are compared to the Neptunes due to their versatility with the music genre they produce and their ability to make #1 hits not only in reggaeton, but in other major charts. Many of today's hits in reggaeton were produced by Luny Tunes. Some examples are Tito El Bambino's "Caile", Daddy Yankee's"Gasolina", Wisin y Yandel's "Rakata", Zion's "Alocate", Don Omar's "Dale Don Dale", Tego Calderon's "Métele sazón", Julio Voltio's "El bumper" and many more. Before their commercial success as reggaeton producers, they worked at Harvard College's mess hall, Harvard University's Annenberg Hall; Luny working as a chef and Tunes as a dishwasher. Luny Tunes are also known for bringing up new producers in the genre such as Nely (El Arma Secreta), Tainy, Naldo and Nesty (La Mente Maestra). Luny Tunes still reside in Puerto Rico where they own a studio estimated to be worth around 1.5 million dollars.

After moving to the Dominican Republic to produce music, they worked with Ivy Queen, one of the premiere female reggaeton artists, on her 2002 album Diva. It was one of the most prolific and progressive reggaeton albums of the year. They began producing for many reggaeton artists such as the now defunct duo Hector y Tito, Zion y Lennox, Daddy Yankee, Lito y Polaco, Karel y Voltio, Angel y Khriz, and many more. Their instrumentals and musical styles were creating a new standard in reggaeton in general.

After achieving success producing for various albums, they have decided to make an attempt to achieve commercial success with their own album, Mas Flow. Mas Flow was promoted by DJ Nelson who helped produced the album. Many of reggaeton's biggest names at the time were featured in Mas Flow, such as Daddy Yankee, Don Omar, Wisin y Yandel, Zion y Lennox, Hector y Tito, Tego Calderon, Khriz y Angel, Plan B, and others. The CD was a huge commercial success in Latin America and was one of the top Latin albums in the United States. They were becoming one of the leading producers of Latin music.
