"This is a nice addition to my Kristine W. Collection. I especially loved the Humpty Vission Remix! Kristine W. will always have an audience because her music comes from the heart and soul."

STRONGER all the time!

"Track list + times>>> 1 Hex Hector Main Club Mix -9:27 2 MOTIV8 Tasty Vocal Club MIx -7:45 3 Junior Vasquez White Party Remix -10:37 4 JOhnny Vicious Club Mix -9:22 5 RH Factor Club Mix -7:17 6 Richard Humpty Vission Remix -6:28 7 Hex Hector Dub -8:50.RCA have pulled out all the stops to promote this fabulous second offering from Kristine's brilliant album "Stronger". Have you ever seen a better line up?! OK, Maverick hit all the bases last Summer with Madonna's "Music" but this remix package is just as HUGE -the remixer list reading like a Whos Who in Clubland!Hex and Dezrock lead the way with the Main Club Mix >> classic Hex that builds it's way into a FANTASTIC dark, dancefloor heavy anthem. Then London's Steve Rodway joins forces with Pete Lorimer to create the fabulously trashy MOTIV8 Mix >> definitely my favourite mix here -complete with dirty Euro beats and noises, a synth build up after each chorus that excites you into a frenzy and a breakdown in the middle that holds you waiting ... waiting for that final drop into dancefloor HEAVEN! BLINDING! (For more of this -try the Motiv8 mix of Kylie's ubiquitous anthem "On a night like this" and Billie's "Something Deep Inside".)Junior Vasquez brings in a dark, electronic, industrial mix that is fine but not as Peak Time as hoped for >> using dark string sounds, those familiar vocal tricks and a marching snare drum to drive the vocal thread. Thank GOD for Johnny Vicious! Does this Man EVER disappoint?! Johnny's Club Mix is PEAK TIME material >> faster, harder, anthemic with fabulous hands-in-the-air synth chords that drive you mad for more! (For more of this -try Johnny's remix of "Best Things" by Filter.) Then we get the RH Factor Club Mix which is totally different >> slower, softer house beats that drop into a gorgeous, funky retro romp. The only disappointment is that the vocal stops halfway through. Vission offers a deep, pleasure dub with funky, playful bass lines, vocal adlibs and great house beats but there is, again, no full vocal. BUT then it's full circle back to Hex Hector for a brilliant dub that reminds us why he's a reigning Remix King >> think "Nobody's supposed to be here"! The breakdown is torturous .. leading slowly .. slowly into those anthemic chords and Kristine's vocal adlibs.All in all, this is a pretty essential package for any Club Boys and Girls. Don't think, just BUY!"

Lovin' It!

"Kristine W is a versatile artist, and "Lovin' You" displays her flirtation with pop. Of course it doesn't compare to "Feel What You Want" or "Land Of The Living", but again, aren't we comparing apples and oranges here? Lovin' You is a feel-good declaration of love and should be appreciated as such. The remixes are spectacular, particularly the one by Motiv8. All Kristine fans should enjoy this one, and keep this in mind: She's working away on her follow-up album!!!!! Keep checking (her website) for more news!!"
