As the home cities of both groups began opening their borders, independent music collective Yeti Out and Egyptian clothing brand UNTY were able to realize a unique collaboration connecting Hong Kong to the Egyptian capital of Cairo. Connected by a shared passion for independent music and grassroots underground scenes, the duo recently connected online and exchanged ideas for the very first time. With Yeti Out co-founder Arthur Bray preparing a trip to Egypt, the conversation developed into a co-curated party at Yellow Tape Records & Culture in Cairo featuring talented local artists and bites.
The Yeti Out team brought along a vinyl record from Hong Kong band N.Y.P.D. and the two teams created a series of collaborative apparel and stickers featuring custom illustrations and Arabic and Chinese characters.
"The whole project done via text, no agent, no middle man, no bs. Just 2 penpals making moves! Moral of the story? Trust in the intuition, build with your friends, and look out for that tweaked/ADD always-ready-to-get-down energy crew in a city near you!" Bray said in a post.
The collaborative merch is now available at UNTY's website and a curated playlist from the duo can be found below.
