When it comes to releasing new music, Krewella is on a roll. Two weeks after dropping “Be There,” they released their latest single, “Love Outta Me” on May 31. Now, Yasmine and Jahan just dropped their latest EP, New World Part 1, on June 8 to celebrate their anniversary of starting Krewella.

To remember the special day, the sisters wrote a heartfelt message to their fans saying:

Seven years ago we quit school & our side jobs to dedicate ourselves to Krewella. in honor of that day we are releasing the New World EP Pt.1 we poured our hearts & souls into this one, had a fucking blast, dug into our cultural roots, and experimented more. we’re proud to announce that the New World Pt. 1 EP is our first independent release in 5 years on our very own ‘Mixed Kids Records’ — it feels so freeing to create art from a liberated mindset without expectations. can’t wait for you guys to hear every song and let us know how they make you feel. thank you to our krew for supporting us nonstop throughout this journey!! – Jahan & Yasmine.

I was lucky enough to catch up with Krewella to talk about their new EP, a special Zumba performance they were a part of and more big surprises to come!

Fans are in suspense after hearing that a new EP or a full album is coming up; which one can we look forward to and when? (Yazzy, “soon” doesn’t count as an answer. :P)

Soon is totally the worst answer, I know. I say that all the time because in my head, 2 months seems “soon” compared to the year or more we sometimes work on bodies of music. We are proud to announce that our new EP is out as of today (June 8), titled ‘New World: Part 1.’ Part 2 coming…soon 🙂

Rumor has it that you girls have also launched Mixed Kids Records, which is awesome! Can you share more details about that and the inspiration behind creating the platform?

Yes, our first self-owned record label! We recently left Columbia Records to pursue our own label. It’s an exciting time for us because for the first time in 5 years we have 100% control over when releases happen. Creatively we’ve always been able to make exactly the music we’ve been feeling at the time, the freedom of release schedule is a new motivating factor in the studio process for sure.
