"Your Love Is A Shadow"

This is the first track off our debut album. The song was inspired by a podcast I had heard about the human experimentation program MKULTRA. This same podcast also discussed actor Cary Grant and his use of LSD in the early 1960's and how it was his wife Betsy Drake who 'turned him on' to it. The song is about what one will do for love no matter how far her drug 'pushes you to the depths of your mind'.

Also look for this song to be included in the upcoming 2011 Canadian Indie Film 'Unlucky'!

Unlucky (2011)

'we in the movies'

Well not really but we have been fortunate enough to have one of our songs ('Your Love Is A Shadow') chosen to be a part of this film....Unlucky. We are not sure yet what scene our song will make it into, but if it's anything like this we are down!

Thanks again to Joel Silver and the production staff for making this happen. We hope the film hits many theatres in each and everyone of your neighbourhoods.

SHOW - December 9th @ El Mocambo

Hi friends, been a long time. The DPRS are playing what looks like their last Toronto show of 2011. It's for a great cause. We are headlining, check out the details HERE.

The DPRS are...

M.Jacques, B.Quinn, J.Fitzpatrick, G.Jonez
August 2011

Lots of creativty happening right now. Two new songs are under way. A pure pop classic by G.Jonez. Sounding solid, but still so many directions we can go. Not sure of a title...'like james dean'? BQ and I threw one done while the other guys were on break. Mike says it reminds him of Lou Reed, nice one Mike. I'll give more song content later but for now it's called 'through irony and fear'.

We met up last night for press photos and to complete a video treatment, both were a success. Can't wait to tell you more!

SHOW Review - Out of the Box Fest, by Mechanical Forest Sound

Awesome time playing the first ever Out Of the Box fest. Esecially loved playing infront of a large screen displaying god knows, in 3D.

Thanks to Randal Harris for putting this all together and for including us.

Here is a brief description of our set and a photo from our friend Mechanical Forest Sound:

"I was more settled in as Davey Parker Radio Sound took the stage. Playing their first show with a new drummer (welcome to Mike Jacques), the band pumped out a series of snarling nuggets".


















And congrats to our new drummer Hawaii Mike for his excellent live debut with the band. It sounded nothing like a debut.

Hope to see you in a town near you.

i've been waiting

After entering The DPRS into mispace in 06 I quickly discovered The Hoa Hoa's & they quickly became one of my favorite bands. Since 08 it has secretly been my goal to share a stage with these beautiful psychedelic giants but it never happened, until this Friday night. I know it's a fest gig, but its still a major honour to go on right before them. Pop, Drone, Pedals & sonic bloom friends. July 2011 has been amazing.
