He caught attention with "Kostumeramt" as part of the Aarhus-based Hukaos collective made up of William, Tais and Louis Rustum with the track's appearance on the collective's EP release 1. sal.[2][3] But it was with his EP Døende that he found chart success reaching number 8 on Tracklisten, the official Danish Albums Chart. The album was produced by Eloq (of Cheff Records), Tais (Hukaos collective), Carl Barsk and Emil Hesselbæk. "Foruden at forgude" and its accompanying music video is the second major song release after "Kostumeramt".[4]
