Hey! My name is Justin, and I'm a saxophonist based in LA.
I've toured and performed with artists Ariana Grande, Lindsey Stirling, Saint Motel, David Foster, Leon Bridges, and others. While at home, I really enjoy working on remote recording projects. I specialize in Pop, Rock, Funk, R&B, and have a background in Jazz. Check out www.justinklunk.com for more info.
I specialize in tracking solos or backing parts. Rates per project may vary (rates listed are an average). We can discuss that prior to the project and what you're looking for specifically. Price can be adjusted depending on what you're looking for and how many songs you need tracked.
I generally will track and send a few takes for each solo track being recorded so that you may pick between the takes. For sax section parts (mainly in contemporary music) I will send doubles so that you can pan them if you'd like. I will always deliver dry WAV files, but may include an FX folder if the song called for it. The instruments I can record include Alto, Tenor, Soprano, and Baritone Saxophones.
My number 1 goal is to get you what you're looking for, and can do up to 2 retakes with your notes to find the sound you need for your record. Always open to any and all ideas you may want to try!
Let's make some cool music together!!

Justin absolutely nailed it. He knew exactly what I needed for a solo and played it beyond expectation! What a fantastic musician. We had terrific communication throughout the project. He was polite, professional and magnificent to work with.
check_circleVerifiedJustin has gone above and beyond my expectations. Absolutely fantastic musician and performer. He's taken my ideas and gone way further than I could have ever imagined. He's also provided with with a lot of great takes on alto and tenor sax so that I have every choice available to me to chose from when arranging the song. Very quick turnaround as well and very easy to communicate with. I look forward to writing more for sax so that I can hire him again for my next project.

Justin completely nailed the vibe I was going for. His tracks sound great, his skill is deadly. A total professional, and seriously kind.
I contacted several people, but Justin's response was not only the quickest but by far the most professional. It was clear he had understood my entire message and grasped my idea. His proposal had the clearest details and terms than others I got. Justin worked crazy fast and delivered ahead of schedule. He was so generous too. The tracks sound perfect.

Great guy and great musician! It was a pleasure to work with Justin. Highly recommended!
I was the Saxophonist on all, and artist on a couple in this production
I will do up to 2 re-takes so that we can get the sound you're looking for. I have a fast turn-around time as long as I'm in town (1-2 days). We can talk about turnaround time prior to the project.
