ConceptionCast: ❤️ Playa Mixtapes with Love ❤️

We're delighted to feature LA's Federico Daiup for our 6th Conception podcast. Federico graced us with this beautiful live deep set from Conception's spot on Burning Man's annual Gay Naked Pub Crawl in 2022, where hundreds of naked queer men go from camp to camp in search of cocktails one afternoon in the dust. Federico notes: 

"I remember the day I played at the Camp of Conception party; it was one that I could never forget. The day was memorable from the very beginning, when we rode around the city in an airplane during the early morning hours. Afterwards, we spent the rest of our day soaking in the city and exploring different spots until the party started. We arrived at noon and I began my first set, inspired by an experimental deep trip with minimal sounds. Later on, I started my second set; it was an improvisation, deeply connected with what was going on around and inside me in that exact moment. It was really fun and satisfying to have the chance to share my passion in such a vibrant, eclectic space. While it’s truly impossible to describe the emotions that emerge from experiencing Burning Man, I hope you may find some perspective in my music."

We're delighted to present an ethereal live mix from Justin Collins at Burning Man 2022, from Camp Conception's annual Beard Spa, up next. 

Justin writes: "This mix was inspired by the quintessential vibes at Camp Conception's annual Beard Spa. When I arrived people were kicked back in the shade in lawn chairs with their eyes closed getting beard trims and face/neck massages. Meanwhile others were mingling and doing a bit of butt wiggling to the tunes. It was late afternoon and the sun was beating down again after the dust settled from a recent wind storm. Benjamin (Konifer) welcomed me with a big pleasant surprise smile as I think we both were unsure if I'd make it. After all this was my first burn and I was down the rabbit hole most of the time. Add some logistics to that and finding your way and showing up on time can be a bit of a struggle. But I made it! 

These track selections are just my soul reflecting back what I was feeling from the Beard Spa zone. Giving those listening some sun shining deep and uplifting house and disco. It was a lovely experience. Thank you Camp Conception and the Beard Spa!"
