The 2021 Prism Prize for Best Canadian Music Video was recently awarded to Theo Kapodistrias, for his clip for Haviah Mighty’s Thirteen. We will continue to profile noteworthy Canadian videos that are eligible for the 2022 prize, including this one from a retro glam rocker making waves.


 Art d'Ecco - Desires 

Emerging from the Gulf Islands off the coast of British Columbia, West Coast rocker Art d'Ecco creates a sound that leaves listeners intrigued and wrapped up in the mystery of it all. His lyrics and sound reflect current obsessions and his performance persona demands attention. 

His newest single, Desires, is featured on the album In Standard Definition, one that takes listeners on a journey through the glory days of celebrity to the current obsession that we see now. Specifically, Desires introduces a style that “salutes the aging, out-of-touch performers from soap star to game show host,” according to Art d'Ecco.

Lorde Celebrates One-Year ‘Virgin’ Anniversary With Mega-Drop of 49 Demos

The singer's new XRAYS site also features photos, notes and artwork ideas.

Lorde pulled back the curtain on the making of her 2025 album Virgin on Friday with a massive one-year anniversary celebration that included a personal essay and the posting of 49 demos from the album’s sessions.

“On Sunday night I was putting my clothes away and realised Virgin had been out for almost a year. I decided something had to be done about that,” she wrote in a lengthy essay to fans. “To be honest I haven’t really known how to talk about Virgin since it came out. I’d thought I was accustomed and even a bit desensitised to marketing and commodifying my feelings at this point in my life, but sharing Virgin felt raw and exposing in a new way.* I interviewed poorly, couldn’t write here, haven’t posted much. “
