Beyond his work with Energise Records, Sakgra has also collaborated with artists such as andrew nolan, robert o’connor and retropenu, developing a distinctive musical identity rooted in nostalgic pop, electronic dance music and the vibrant culture of the 80s. His work spans original productions, remixes and collaborations, combining retro influences with modern production and a strong visual identity. Sakgra’s music celebrates dance, nostalgia, freedom and individuality, with a natural connection to LGBTQ+ culture and its international audience.. «What if» is a bright, nostalgic 80s-inspired summer dance-pop song by sakgra featuring tomek zdyb. Blending catchy melodies, uplifting electronic production and the unmistakable atmosphere of an endless greek summer, the song explores the excitement of attraction, possibility and those unforgettable “what if?” moments. The music video was filmed in greece during the summer, bringing the song’s carefree energy to life through sun, mediterranean scenery and a distinctly nostalgic 80s aesthetic. «What if» is a celebration of summer, freedom, romance and living in the moment, a feel-good pop track made for warm nights, dancing and unforgettable memories.

Tushie Riot – «Dum de dem»

«Tushie Riot is ‘queer cutemaxxing’ with street roots—rap that unites sexuality, gender, and love over beats so raw that your homophobic uncle would turn right around and become an ally», Hxnning David Williams, better known as Hxnning, tells Blikk.no.

Together with Big Daddy Karsten, he forms the rap duo Tushie Riot, currently making waves with «Dum De Dem» («Stupid They They»), a direct and humorous track that takes a clear stand against transphobia. As solo artists, they have distinct musical styles; in Tushie Riot, they come together in a blend of hip-hop, queer everyday life, and activism.
