  • Krewella Release 'Somewhere to Run,' First Single of 2015

    After the news leaked out last week that Krewella would be releasing a new single today, March 23 -- the first of 2015 -- the "Alive" duo followed up on that news by sharing their new song "Somewhere to Run." Featuring production work from Pegboard Nerds and Don Gilmore (Korn, Linkin Park), Yasmine and Jahan Yousaf continue their attempt to blend rock and heavy elements of EDM into their own new sound as they continue on in the post-Kris "Rainman" Trindl era.
  • Krewella Releasing New Single 'Somewhere To Run' Next Week

    Krewella have been noticeably quiet ever since former member of the trio Kris "Rainman" Trindl sued the group, probably at the behest of their legal team, but it appears that new music is on the way. Word spread across the internet (via YourEDM) and was then later confirmed by Krewella themselves that the pair have a new single coming "Somewhere To Run" on March 23, just before they head down to Miami for a few shows during the week and then their performance on the Live Stage on Sunday at Ultra Music Festival.

  • Ex-Krewella Kris Trindl Responds to Jahan Yousaf's 'Billboard' Op-Ed

    The war of words between Jahan Yousaf of Krewella, deadmau5 and former Krewella producer / DJ Kristopher "Rainman" Trindl continues to heat up. After a pretty quiet period after the initial shock had settled in from the court filings by Trindl and the counter filings by Krewella, the two sides have started to wage the war of public opinion online. After an op-ed in Billboard by Jahan Yousef, Kris took to twitter to respond to Yousaf's comments saying he was "betrayed" by the group and he was "forced out so that everybody could cash better checks."
  • Krewella Release Single 'Say Goodbye,' Silent on Lawsuit

    After much fanfare about potentially speaking out on their current lawsuit pending against them by former member Kristopher Trindl, Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf of Krewella went on Twitch, the popular video game streaming platform, to reveal a new song: "Say Goodbye." Instead of it being an interactive live stream, which they scheduled for yesterday, Nov. 23, at 5 p.m. PST, it was just an initial play of their new single "Say Goodbye." Over the past few days, Krewella have been back in the headlines after the initial shock of Trindl's allegations wore off. The sisters filed their own counterclaim to Trindl's lawsuit, and then on Friday updated their Facebook page with a new logo and cryptic photo with the words "Say Goodbye" written faintly in white over a black background. These recent events have put the three of them back in the spotlight, and with the new Krewella single it appears the sisters are moving on from Kris "Rain Man" Trindl's involvement in the group. The track has an emo punk rock sound, mixed with some elements of drum and bass and hard-hitting electronic riffs. It carries a lot of emotion, epitomized by the chorus:
  • Krewella File Counterclaim, To Speak at 5 p.m. PST; deadmau5 Responds

    After breaking their silence on Facebook with a cryptic message telling their fans to "Say Goodbye," Krewella have brought the fight back to the courtroom with a lawsuit of their own against Kris Trindl, the former third member of the group. Jahan Yousaf and Yasmine Yousaf, the sister duo who remain in Krewella, have alleged in their counterclaim that Trindl's allegations are baseless and look to show he was not integral to the group, prompting deadmau5 to respond. First reported by "The Hollywood Reporter," the claims filed in Los Angeles court detail close to two years of alleged negligent behavior that look to paint him as someone unable and unwilling to do the work required for Krewella. The 22-page court document recounts a period overt the past two years where Trindl was largely absent from studio sessions and unable to DJ because he was either too intoxicated or simply had not learned how to. As the court documents state, "While on stage, Kris would generally stand to the side of Jahan and Yasmine and pump his arms, while pretending to DJ; he was onstage primarily for the sake of image. Because Kris did not know how to DJ, he only had two effect buttons." The counterclaim also alleges that Trindl, producer for the group, actually did little producing on their artist album "Get Wet" and only wholly contributed to one song, though he received producing credits on all the tracks. The two lawsuits agree on the fact that Trindl had a substance abuse problem, but the Yousaf sisters tell a different story with how he received help. The counterclaim portrays him as uncooperative with attempts by Jahan and Yasmine to give him help with his alcohol addiction. The sisters will be speaking out today at 5 p.m. PST to give their side of the story during a live stream event on Twitch. In addition to the counterclaim filed in L.A. court, we will see what they have to say on the lawsuit, giving the situation a more human touch. They also may comment on upcoming releases and give some clarity to their "Say Goodbye" photo. Deadmau5, who has been quite vocal about this whole situation, took to his favorite medium of communication — Twitter — to share his thoughts on the situation.
  • Krewella 'Say Goodbye' With Cryptic Photos; Deadmau5 Responds

    Jahan and Yasmine have been quiet since the allegations rose against them by former member of the trio Kris Trindel aka Rain Man that he was being forced out of Krewella for not partying enough and denied his proper share of the earnings the group was accruing from touring. Now the sisters have broken their silence and taken to Facebook with a cryptic message "Say Goodbye" that could be aimed at Trindl. Before fans had much time to interpret the message, they posted another picture with their new logo, squashing any notion that "Say Goodbye" could mean the end of Krewella.
