Ten Thousand Free Men & Their Families (also known as 10k or 10kfreemen) is an Australian electronic music project created by Sydney-based musician Thomas Gilmore. Formed in 2007, the project uses the Nintendo Game Boy as its primary instrument, blending chiptune, electronic, and punk influences into a style Gilmore describes as "chipunk." Gilmore became involved in promoting Australian chipmusic through the GameBoyAustralia blog and later co-founded the vinyl-only label Sounds Legit. Known for energetic performances combining Game Boy sounds with hardcore punk vocals, Ten Thousand Free Men & Their Families released works including the EPs MKE OR BRK (2010) and Another (2010), and the Blip Festival 2011 live recording.
