Review: Over the last 12 months, Mixmag has been dipping into their archive of cover-mount CDs and making the mixes available digitally for the first time. The latest set to get this treatment is a 2014 mix from Seth Troxler, when the popular artist was at the peak of his powers. Recorded live in one take with no overdubs or post-mix editing trickery, the Illusion Noveau sees Troxler move from the creepy ice cream van tones of Windy & Carl's 'Carnivale' to the steelpan-fired brilliance of Steven Encinas' 'Disco Illusion', via heady neo-dub (Pepe Bradock), next-level minimalist jazz (Ricardo Villalobos remixing Royal Dust), glitch-house (Matthew Herbert), Afro-house (Obafunke), wonky late night house (nis own collab with the Martinez Brothers) and strobe-lit neo-Italo insanity (Todd Terje's rework of Simon Baker).
