Spotify has deleted indie band Vulpeck's silent "Sleepify" album for violating its terms of service. The release, which contained no sound at all, would have reportedly netted the band $20,000 from plays of "the most silent album ever recorded" by fans and supporters who often left Spotify running all night while they slept.

In a recorded response to Spotify, posted there as a new release dubbed "Official Statement", the band said they had just been contacted by the music streamer and jokingly asked for "30 seconds of silence to ponder the uncertainty."
