Posted online: Friday, June 17, 2005 at 0000 hours IST
Remix, which already has a foot-tapping title track sung by Aasma and composed by Pritam (of Dhoom fame), is all set to incorporate another racy number composed by Bappi Lahiri. Now, one just cannot think of Bappi without his trademark disco. So, there will be a
disco track in the X generation serial. Tia, Anvesha, Yuvi and Ranvir, the four main characters, hail from different backgrounds and seem to follow their own path towards fulfilling their ambitions. But circumstances force them to come together and through a series of dramatic twists and turns, the four have finally formed a music group Remix.

Bollywood composer Bappi Lahiri is scoring the music for an item number in the youth-centric show Remix on Star One.
"This is the first time that I am composing the music for a song in a TV serial," says Lahiri. "I had done some work on Doordarshan years ago," he adds.
The flamboyant composer is excited at the thought of making music for television. "I am glad to be associated with Star. All this while I had not even done the title track of any small screen show."
The reasons why Lahiri agreed to take on this offer was simply because they wanted a disco number. "So who else but Bappi for the music?" he asks while recording the track at the Blue Diamond Studio, Juhu, yesterday.
"Aisa mauka mile na nabhi is a young, peppy track; typical of my kind of music." The song has been sung by the Aasma group with lyrics by Sandeep Srivastava (Ab Tak Chappan). "My son Bappa is the co-ordinator for the track," he says.
Adds producer Shrishti Behl Arya, "We selected Bappi because the track is typically his kind of number. It will be an anthem for Remix. The track will be picturised on them next week."
