The fifth compilation in the Selection series, specially mixed by label A&R and DJ Riley Reinhold (aka Triple R). Selection 5 features a lot more tracks than its predecessors, many of which have not been released on either Trapez or Trapez Ltd so far, but will be in 2007. Reinhold has released dozens of records, played all the best clubs, and hence has acquired all the best skills to mix tracks right. This CD starts with an unreleased track by Riley himself: "Point Zero" is a hypnotic psychedelic track that is mixed into Dominik Eulberg's remix of the rave monster "Fillertet2" by Shane Berry. Rico Puestel is a new German artist who shows promising skills with his Akufen-like structured funk trax. Martin Eyerer and Gui Boratto are next up, putting forward a bassline-driven, percussive minimal monster that works its way into jazzy chords before it returns to a stripped-down groove. Ananda's remix of Marek Bois is a groovy journey through different levels of dynamics, while Poland's superstar SLG takes a cool Mediterranean groove and a nice bass line that makes his track roll. Luke Le Mans has produced one of the rare acid tracks on Trapez, keeping it cool, controlled and nice in the build-up. 3 Channels contribute a rhythmic and deep Chicago-flavored rhythm track which flows nicely into Jeff Samuel's last Trapez drop. Sandiego presents his own version of Spanish funk-induced techno, Florian Meindl and Alex Under provide pure German youth techno and Audio Werner remixes Swat-Squad's top track. Mark Henning ropes some straight minimal techno, while newcomer Andrea Ferlin likes his minimal more hazy. Nôze and UND are mixed together into one before we are pulled back into minimal techno by Renato Figoli. Toro's minimal Latin groover is by Jorge Gebauhr and Reinhold himself, meeting the final track of the CD, a remix of "Supersnack" by Trapez core artist Oliver Hacke. The future looks bright for Trapez.
