Dat Oven

Originally released in 1998, Icy Lake is one of only three recordings by Dat Oven, a NYC-based house duo. Championed by house legend Junior Vasquez and rediscovered on Youtube by Total Freedom, the song was embraced by the Night Slugs and Fade to Mind family. A forgotten classic of the weird school, the crew heard a reverse time capsule in Icy Lake, a message from an Eski future to the Tribal House scene of 90s NYC. After making contact with Dat Oven’s Jeffery Gratton, L-Vis 1990 was inspired to create a series of remixes, resulting in this full reissue with additional mixes by DJ Rashad & NA (Teklife / Nguzunguzu) and Total Freedom. Icy Lake is the first in a series of collaborative releases from Night Slugs and Fade to Mind.
