South Carolina singer and producer Niecy Blues describes her songwriting process like an undertow: »I feel a strange pull, and let it carry me, following swirling leaves… whole days roll by, forgetting about the body.« Their full-length debut, »Exit Simulation«, captures this sense of deep-rooted divination, cycling between simmering ballads, ghosted R&B, downtempo gospel, and looped vocal improvisations – often within the same track. The title is taken from a science fiction novel she read during the purgatory of the pandemic, alluding to a dimensional ideation of departure – »the permission to imagine leaving.«
