Australian musician Francis Plagne delivers a hauntingly meditative work with The Refrain, released on the esteemed Black Truffle label in 2022. Recorded between 2012 and 2020 and constructed in the summer of 2021, the album sits within the traditions of musique concrète and drone, drawing comparisons to artists like Graham Lambkin, Deathprod, and Andrew Chalk.
The Refrain unfolds across two side-long tracks that blend the mundane with the otherworldly, mixing sounds that rise, recede, and overlap in a sequence of abstract vignettes. Dedicated to Angela Kay (1954–2020), the album feels deeply personal yet disarmingly beautiful, guiding listeners through a series of scenes without context or direction — an immersive and quietly affecting listening experience.
