COMMENTS
If a^4 + b^4 = m, then (m^2 * a)^4 + (m^2 * b)^4 = m^9 = (m^3)^3 is a cube. Therefore A003336(n)^3 are terms of this sequence.
When k is in this sequence, k(n^4), for n > 1, is also in this sequence.
EXAMPLE
8^3 = 2^9 = 4^4 + 4^4, so 8 is in the sequence.
4913^3 = 17^9 = 17^8 * (1 + 2^4) = 289^4 + 578^4, so 4913 is in the sequence.
MATHEMATICA
fourthPowerFlags = Union@Flatten@Table[a^4 + b^4 && GCD[a, b] == 1, {a, 4}, {b, a, 4}]; Take[Union@Flatten@Table[k^4 * fourthPowerFlags[[j]]^3, {k, 27}, {j, 6}], 34]
