Spinning records isn’t the only thing disc jockeys Calvin Harris and Steve Angello have in common. They also have similar taste in real estate.

A corporate entity linked to Harris was the buyer of Angello’s Hollywood Hills home, which sold last month for about $5.045 million.

The musical roots apparently run deep at the two-story traditional home, which features a two-story music room and recording studio. Composer-musician Tom Rothrock, who has worked with such artists as Foo Fighters, Moby and Gwen Stefani, is another former owner.

Sitting high up from the street, the 1940s house has four bedrooms, five bathrooms and a little more than 6,000 square feet of living space. Interior details include vaulted ceilings, built-in bookshelves and subdued hues. Oversized picture windows make the most of city-lights views.

Market lights cross over the swimming pool and patios in the backyard. There’s also an outdoor shower.

Harris, 33, has hits that include “The Girls,” “I’m Not Alone” and “Let’s Go.” In 2013, he won a Grammy for best short-form music video for the song “We Found Love,” which features Rihanna.

Angello, with Swedish House Mafia, co-produced such hits as “Save the World,” “Greyhound” and “Miami 2 Ibiza.” The 35-year-old is the founder and owner of Size Records and its sister label, X.

Gary Gold of Hilton & Hyland, an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, was the listing agent. Joshua and Matthew Altman of Douglas Elliman represented the buyer.
