Take a journey into Raga and Tala based music, and find out the intricacies of this ever evolving ancient musical tradition as we weave our way though musicians, instruments, ragas and time-cycles.
A state of mind more than a grading scale, Mint Condition journeys deep into an abyss of new, classic, and obscure 12" and 7" records - with a focus toward high-end boogie, disco, two step, sweet soul, italo, house and modern funk.

Progresiv TM is a Romanian band, founded in 1972 in the town of Timişoara. The first name of the band has been "Clasic XX"; "Progresiv TM" has been adopted only in April 1973. At first they achieved local notoriety, they recorded an LP (1973 - 'Dreptul de a visa'), and two years later, in 1975, they became well known throughout Romania. The initial line-up was: Harry Coradini (vocals); Ladislau Herdina (guitar, voice); Ilie Stepan (bass); Hely Moszbrucker (drums, percussion); Mihai Farcaş (drums, piano, percussion); Gheorghe Torz (flute). Later on, the classical line-up was:
-Harry Coradini (vocals) -Liviu Tudan (bass, piano, vocals) -Ladislau Herdina (guitar, vocals) -Florin Ochescu (guitar) -Ion Cristian (drums, vocals)
They combined heavy mid-tempo riffs with strong vocal harmonies and melodies that slip interestingly in and out of the expected routes of blues-based rock progressions. Virtuoso solos on, often double-tracked, electric guitar and flute punctuate the prevalent vocal sections. Progressive feel comes from occasional rhythmic and structural complexities, as well calmer moments where a piano may intrude upon the guitars and the flute may assume a more lyrical hue. Following the recording of their last album (1976 - 'Puterea muzicii', released in 1977), the group disbanded in September of the same year. Coradini and Herdina joined Liviu Tudan, Florin Ochescu and Decebal Bădilă into the "Rosu şi Negru - Progresiv TM" ("Red & Black - Progresiv TM"), a Romanian version of the "Asia"-type supergroups.
