The Mulligans. Nope, not an Irish family who loves the drink. It is a new series over at 11 Inch Records with a ridiculous name derived from the boringest of games, golf. In short, a mulligan is when a player gets a second chance to perform a certain move or action. (“I’m going to take a mulligan on that shot.” “Too bad you can’t take a mulligan on that guy you slept with.” You get the idea.)
These are all ideas which were taken from projects that I had to put the kibosh on, for one reason or another. But, instead of letting them languish on a harddrive somewhere, I’m giving them a second chance & letting them fly. So check here every Monday for a new joint & a couple words on where it came from. (Ed: We will try not to call it Mulligan Mondays, but no promises.)
Here are the first 3 so you know the mess you’re getting into:
War Talk (DJ Eleven’s half a remix) by 11InchRecords
Til Your Dead feat. Senor Kaos by 11InchRecords
Weh Dem A Do (DJ Eleven Borrow, Buy remix) by 11InchRecords

DJ Apt One release on 11 Inch Records & festivities
Posted: July 13, 2010 Filed under: DJ Eleven | Tags: 11 Inch Records, DJ Apt One, DJ Eleven, Philadelphyinz, RCMP, Young RobotsI’m excited to be posting about the newest release from my latest venture, 11 Inch Records.
DJ Apt One is 1/2 of RCMP, 1/2 of the Philadelphyinz with our very own Skinny Friedman (who just dropped a great EP), 1/3 of Young Robots, and a dude who brings the heat. I’ll let Apt tell you more: “I’ve had a grip of disco cuts in storage for a time, waiting for the moment to show people that it’s ok to be deep as long as you stay funky.” Now is that time! Head over to iTunes, Juno, or Gigacrate to cop it while it’s hot. (TurntableLab & Amazon, etc. links to follow shortly.)
And if you’re in New York this Thursday, July 15th, come through to join me in welcoming Apt One to FAM (at Von – 3 Bleecker Street in the basement) to celebrate this release. We’ll be throwing down from 9PM – 3AM & it’s always free.
Over a year after starting on the project, the song that I did with the homie Mike Baker The Bike Maker has finally hit the (digital) record stores (and their virtual shelves)! Vancouver’s Kutcorners contributed a great bassline for the original version. Mike2600, Illo + Keam, and DJ Ayres (you may have heard of him) all flipped great remixes! And, Kalani did a fantastic job freakin’ the artwork.
If you look on down below the artwork, you’ll see more than a couple places to buy it!
Turntable Lab or Gigacrate or Juno or Amazon or iTunes
This Thurs, June 10th, myself & the FAM gang invite out you to join us in celebrating the first birthday of our little party. Lindsey, Myles, Sureshot, Morsy, Queen Majesty, and myself will be playing all the jams to make it a hellafied first birthday party. Free booze will be poured early in the night. Dancing shoes will be broken in. Someone may get pregnant. A good time will be had by all. Be there at 9PM so you don’t miss any of the fun!
I don’t really know how else to put this… I’m a big Devin The Dude fan!
He’s the perfect combination of an exceptionally talented musician, a great MC, and a hilarious & charismatic guy. He’s been co-signed by and been on records with everyone from Scarface to Kool G Rap, The Roots to Jay-Z, Dre and Snoop to De La Soul. (And that’s only the big names! I’d be typing all day if I listed everyone that ever called him for a guest verse or some singing on a chorus.) Just before the first of the year, I sat down & started going through everything he’s ever been on to unearth all my personal favorites. While doing that, in addition to wishing I smoked weed, I got to thinking on how similar Devin was to another Dude character. Months later, the unholy combination of Devin Copeland + Jeffrey Lebowski + Joe Eleven emerged from the laboratory. And with that…

More Eleven news (Special Delivery & touring related)
Posted: April 8, 2010 Filed under: DJ Eleven, MP3, The RubAs Ayres mentioned a post or two back, I’m heading out on a Scion tour with Sinden, JOTS, and Frankie Chan for some middle-of-the-country shenanigans. But there’s more…
Moma & I just dropped a freeload EP of a couple remixes, featuring the talents of Janet Jackson & Aaliyah, to drum up noise for our monthly Special Delivery party, which we’re relaunching this Saturday, April 10th at Manhattan’s SubMercer (147 1/2 Mercer Street, in the Mercer Hotel). You can grab it at http://www.djeleven.com/foralimitedtimeonly/SpecialDelivery.zip
I’ll also be making stops in Palm Springs (to nerd out & be a fan at Coachella & to rock with DJ Day, Gaslamp Killer, Huggs, and J-Boogie), Cincinnati, Cleveland (with Terry Urban), and Toronto (with Big Jacks, Bozack, and Mensa) around the Scion dates. If you’ll be in any of those cities, head to www.djeleven.com for all the relevant details. Over & out.
Our good friends and die-hard Van City representers, Matty C & Neoteric, just posted the mix I did for their White Light mix series. I’m heading up that way to rock with Neoteric on Saturday & to close out the 2010 Olympics on Sunday, with similar pomp & circumstance to how Ayres & Cosmo rang it in I’m sure. So the timing couldn’t be more perfect. Click down below to grab my mix. And make sure you explore the other mixes in the series. They are all great!
