All three members of the group have “6-8-10” tattoos to commemorate June 8, 2010, the day when the three agreed to give up their careers, schooling, and any other intentions for their lives, to dedicate all of their time to the trio’s joint music career. Their music is a blend of self-produced electro house and dubstep, with influences of many other EDM styles. The three met as students at Glenbrook North High School.

Krewella is an American electronic dance music duo from Chicago, Illinois, that formed in 2007. Hope it kicks your ass like it did mine:Ĭool shit, right? No? Well, fuck you then. This is the first Krewella track I ever heard. Perhaps because they added lyrics where there were none before. Those remixes were like entirely different tracks, though. One was from this album, the two others were remixes of other artists’ songs. For my first DJ Mix, actually, I used three Krewella tracks. Some of it’s more pop, some of it’s more electro-house, but it’s all fantastic.

Krewella represented the United States in the first edition of the CMC in June 2018 with the song "Runaway".This is by far one of the best dubstep albums out there right now. The band's name stems from Jahan's misspelling of the word "cruel" when the two began writing music, and is not a reference to Cruella de Vil. However Krewella's style has been influenced by a number of electronic sub genres including progressive house, electro, dubstep, drum and bass, trap music and future bass. Their musical style has been mainly described as EDM, dance-rock and dance-pop. Their debut album, Get Wet, was released on September 24, 2013, on iTunes. Their EP, Play Hard, was released on June 18, 2012, exclusively on Beatport, followed by its release on other digital platforms on June 26, 2012.
