"Exact Change Hip Hop"

"Exact change is exactly what Hip Hop should be. smooth beats, great rhymes and cool messages. The diversity of sounds they display is nothing less than awesome. It’s the kind of music I could imagine just about anyone listening to, from a high school kid laying back relaxing, to a psychologist putting it on after a long day of listening to other peoples problems. If technology wern’t so great it would almost be a tragedy to play their music on anything but a record player." - Scene Kings

"Exact Change: Escape Capsule"

"If there is an album that should be on your list to cop today that may not be on your radar it is the Exact Change Project‘s debut joint Escape Capsule. This is Certified fresH Hip Hop at its absolute finest. Escape Capsule takes us back to our Jazz roots and incorporates all the dope pieces of Hip Hop that made me originally fall in love with the genre. Luge and Formula J, out of Queens put together a project that you will listen to repeatedly and will definitely stand the test of time." - Kevin Nottingham

Bio

Exact Change Project consists of Luge and Formula J, a duo from Queens, New York. In 2010, their musical pursuits lead them Buenos Aires, Argentina, where they originally began working on what would eventually become the "Exact Change Project." We feel that our lives and music represent the idea of an Exact Change. For us, it represents the ability to change the direction of one's life, the confidence to pursue dreams, and the freedom to create an Exact Change in the music that we are accustomed to hearing. After a year and a half of composing, writing, playing shows, and recording their debut album, "Escape Capsule", they moved back to New York City. The new band consists of Vocals, Keys, Saxophone, Bass, and Drums. All of the musicians have a musical history rooted in Jazz, but diverse musical tastes that travel deep into several musical genres. Their vision is taking hip-hop down a new road, embarking upon musical adventures, while exploring the genre’s jazzy roots. Exact Change Project's sound combines influences from New York City and international living, as well as the members’ musical roots in hip-hop, funk, and jazz. Together, they present an original fusion of styles, sounds, and sentiments. Luge’s piano driven beats are organic, soulful, and inventive, while Formula J’s lyrics are a reflection of life, lyricism, and imagination, delivered with original cadences and flows. It’s a very natural, evolutionary process, and the music will surely continue to transform and reinvent itself. “It’s time for that.”
