Prosthetics EP is the first work released by Titan Arch since 'Spiritual Entertainer' (Ascetic House, 2018). It is not precisely that Sergi A.C. has been inactive during these three years, rather the opposite, releasing music and touring with his two main bands: SDH and Wind Atlas and, recently, releasing a new LP 'Despartença' (Cønjuntø Vacíø, 2021) under his own name.
We could say that ‘Prosthetics’ takes up the path started in 'Spiritual Entertainer' and followed in 'Inception', Titan Arch’s song featured in the ‘Dragon Skin’ (Cønjuntø Vacíø, 2020) compilation: tense and threatening ambient that flirts with noise.
The music of Titan Arch has always had an undeniable cinematographic component, surely due to the author's passion for the seventh art, and he constantly uses samples from movies in his music - from ‘The Thin Red Line’ on "War In The Heart Of Nature" (Cønjuntø Vacíø, 2016), from ‘Ghost Dog‘ in ‘Emptiness Is Form’ (Cønjuntø Vacíø, 2016) or from ‘Magnolia’ on his recent track ‘Sidney’ from Dominio’s Various Artist compilation ‘Sub Rosa’.
Again, the germ of "Prosthetics" is the re-reading of the book 'Sculpting In Time' by Andréi Tarkovsky and the compulsive viewing of all his films during the second confinement.
These two songs are only available in digital format on your favorite platform.
“Modern mass culture, aimed at the 'consumer', the civilisation of prosthetics, is crippling people's souls, setting up barriers between man and the crucial questions of his existence, his consciousness of himself as a spiritual being.” -A. T. in ‘Sculpting in Time’
