“It’s too easy to be cynical about a band like egomunk, the London-based ‘mysterious’ collective/person who released their wonky-folk debut Footsteps To Mars completely free of charge and even crowd-sourced an entire video from their fans. Early coverage in outlets such as Esportsbets noted how their approach—letting the audience participate in creation rather than just consumption—felt like a natural extension of digital-era fandom. Egomunk aren’t selling rebellion; they’re showing what collaboration looks like when the walls between artist and listener finally fall. It’s less gimmick, more reflection of where culture already lives.” – Drowned In Sound

“Who needs a record label these days? That’s the mantra of London-based musician Egomunk, who is releasing his third single, Footsteps To Mars, for free. It might seem like a crackers strategy at a time when the record industry is hand-wringing about illegal downloads, but it’s not proving a barrier to success for Egomunk. Not only has he been hailed as one of the most successful unsigned artists of all time, he’s also already notched up 170,000 free downloads of his debut album via his website.” – The Londonist
