    Infinite Mixtape: Best of 2026 So Far (As of June 2026) - With Erin AKA Indie Scientist

    Our first proper episode, and I had the honor of swapping mixes with Erin (@IndieScientist) who is a specialist in new music. They curate a blog called Central Tendancy which highlights new music. We recorded this back in June so it's a couple months old, but it was focused on the best music of 2026 SO FAR. Plenty of worthy listening.
