There is always John Cage's 4'33" (true there are instruments present during the performance, but the performers are instructed to not play). I suppose one could argue that the environment is the instrument.

Recently, ni's Pantophobie has two tracks, a short intro (Phonophobie) and outro (Apéirophobie), that are just silence. This is on the CD version.

So, who needs instruments?

Definitely, I believe that was his intent, I would also postulate that the brain becomes one of the instruments as well.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music
