Prospero is an industrial/rhythmic noise solo project by Canadian musician Wade Anderson of Toronto. Anderson, a long time DJ in the greater Toronto area, started Prospero in early 2000.

In 2001, Anderson co-founded sub.session.records, and it was on this label that Prospero's first release, a limited edition CDr A Storm Is Coming was released.

Prospero's second release, a double CD entitled Spreading the Infection, was released in 2004 as a split release between sub.session media and France's brume records. Prospero has contributed tracks to a number of compilations, including Sub.Session and Duo.Tone released by sub.session.records; Saturation Bombing I and II and [tik] co:man:d [sic] by TIK Recordings. As Prospero, Anderson has remixed tracks for other notable [rhythmic noise] artists such as Empusae, and Converter.

In 2008 Prospero signed to Artoffact Records to release his 3rd CD, Folie à Deux, which contained collaborations with Ayria, Battery Cage. It-clings, and Terrorfakt.
