Two brothers from Norway, which is a country with about five and a half million people and an improbable stranglehold on melodic dance music. Something about the winters.
Daniel and Markus Slettebakken have been releasing as Kream for a decade, working the warmer, more song-shaped end of house — the stuff that is built around a vocal rather than around a drop, which puts them slightly at odds with the rooms that book them. The Orange County crowd tends to skew toward big-room, and a set that leans melodic in that context reads as a deliberate choice rather than a default.
Halloween weekend in Costa Mesa. The parking lot is the pregame and everybody knows it.
Ten at night on Friday the thirtieth, until half one.
