13'''Krewella''' is an ElectronicMusic trio turned duo from UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}}. The members consist of sisters Yasmine and Jahan Yousaf as vocalists and songwriters. Before 2014, Kris Trindl, a.k.a. "Rain Man", produced for Krewella, but he had resigned & sued the sisters after fears that they and their management were phasing him out of the group.

15Their musical style during Rain Man's era drew upon [[{{Dubstep}} dubstep]], moombahton, and [[HouseMusic house]] while post-Rain Man, their musical style has verged more towards [[TrapMusic trap]] as well as dubstep.

35!!Krewella provides examples of:
36
37* AudienceParticipationSong: "Alive" and "Can't Control Myself" are the most frequent.
38* IntercourseWithYou: Most, if not all of their songs from ''Play Hard'' are all about sex. "Come & Get It!", "One Minute", "Alive", "Feel Me", their vocal edit of [[{{Music/Knife Party}} Knife Party]]'s "Fire Hive" just to name a few.
39* LesserStar: Rain Man zigzagged this - while he composed the beats and usually stayed at the table mixing during live shows, he was still a bit behind Yasmine and Jahan in terms of being recognized as a band member.
40* LighterAndSofter: "Alive", "Human", ''Troll Mix Volume Three'', "Can't Forget You", "Be There" and to an extent "Team".
41* LoudnessWar: ''Get Wet'' particularly seems to suffer.
42* MsFanservice: Yasmine and Jahan both invoke a lot of this, especially in the video for "Alive", which was described by one [=YouTube=] commenter as "porn [that] has great music".
43* MoodWhiplash: Somewhat. Yasmine and Jahan's voices mixed with dirty bass style of dubstep is jarring, yet work well.
44* PrecisionFStrike: "Play Hard", "Feel Me", "Life of the Party", "Live for the Night", "We Go Down", "Dancing with the Devil", "Ring of Fire", "Beggars".
