Amazon's rendition of a music show with a twist is impressive.

The remix is a breath of fresh air in the stagnated and swamped space of music shows. Singers aren't just singing but performing that too on popular Bollywood tracks which they completely reinvent by collaborating with a music director as their partner. The director-singer duo is judged based on their ability to remix an existing track with current styles and tempos.

With experienced singers, directors and equally capable judges Sunidhi Chauhan, Amit Trivedi, and Nucleya, the show definitely does not feel like an amateur hour trying to make something of nothing. Karan Tacker does a good job hosting. There are some great performances too like Sree Rama and Candice redding's rendition of 'Masakali', Akasa Singh and Skip's a version of 'Sooraj dooba hai'. Another contender to look out for is NSG who could have killed with a better pairing. Each episode brings a different theme, and contestants must conform a track of their choice to that theme. Teams scoring the least are disqualified every episode.

The production design is on point and stage set up is pleasing to look at. The live audience adds to the overall charm.

Bottom line, a great show for modern-day music enthusiasts.
