Though R&B trio Destiny's Child set more than a few fans' heads to spinning by announcing a hiatus and solo projects after the mega-success of their SURVIVOR album, this collection of new remixes should serve to satiate the DC appetites of anyone fretting about the future of the group. The producers chosen for a remix project are always what such an endeavor stands or falls on, and an interesting cast of remixers turns up on THIS IS THE REMIX. Wyclef Jean adds a no-nonsense East Coast hip-hop feel to "No, No, No." Obviously concerned that the Bee Gees hadn't made enough money recently, the girls called upon the Neptunes to add some flash to their version of the Gibb Brothers tune "Emotion." Renowned beatmeister Timbaland adds an agreeably spacious vista to "Say My Name," one of the staples of Destiny's Child's repertoire. Whether the skilled studio heads pressed into service on THIS IS THE REMIX favor hard-edged hip-hop or laid-back R&B, there's enough new energy breathed into these tunes to forge a favorable new chapter in Destiny's Child history.
