Paris-based dark electro project Ezekiel Gauthier announces the three-track EP “Teenage Dark Love”, scheduled for digital release on 12 February 2026 on Ghost To Host Records. The new release follows a run of singles on the same label and precedes a live show at Tech Noire’s 9-year anniversary at La Machine du Moulin Rouge in Paris on 28 February, where the project will appear alongside Dutch post-punk act Bragolin.
“Teenage Dark Love” is a three-song EP, “a journey from teenage love as a refuge from malaise into more turbulent relationships marked by passion, dependence, and vertigo, in search of brief moments of happiness” as Gauthier puts it.
The EP will hold the following 3 tracks:
- “Teenage Dark Love”
- “Bones and All”
- “Bliss and Kiss”

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
