Unicorns and Flames is a truly intercultural band with members from 4 different countries. Their style could be described as mixed alternative indie grunge with a dreamy touch. They found each other and wrote two new songs at MEME Vol. 1 -> Youth Rock Camp Exchange. "Forest ghost" and was written on a hot night in the bungalow area and is inspired by the big trees and the spirit of the forest.
This song by Unicorns and Flames was recorded at the final show of MEME Vol. 1 -> Youth Rock Camp Exchange in Berlin. This took place on July 29th 2018 at Berlin State Music Academy at FEZ Wuhlheide.
MEME is short for "Music Empowerment Mobility Exchange". Volume 1 was the first edition and the Youth Rock Camp Exchange was an amazing music exchange program for girls, trans* and non-binary youth.
The MEME project was initiated by Auður Viðarsdóttir from Stelpur Rokka in Iceland, Maebh Murphy from Ruby Tuesday e.V. in Germany and Tamara Kojić from Femix in Serbia, who also hosted the MEME Vol 1. -> Seminar and Network Exchange.
Participants and co-organizers from ten European countries have been involved in creating this space for empowerment and community building through music, media and art.
To be continued in 2019 - watch out for MEME Vol. 2
