It's partially true. Here's some information from the Axiom web site
at www.hyperreal.org:

: Miles Davis: Panthalassa. Electric Miles Davis, in funky remixes by
: Bill Laswell, returning from the grave to enlighten civilization in
: new forms. Tracks from In A Silent Way, On the Corner, Get Up With It,
: including previously unreleased material. Packaging by Russell Mills.
: Coming on Sony/Columbia in 1998.

I've not heard anything about it being a multi-disc set, though.
There's also a Bob Marley remix project that Laswell has completed,
and should be released by Christmas.
