The audio begins with a gentle hum, indicative of a refrigerator's typical noise when it's cooling. This is a low, steady sound that's consistent, providing a sense of white noise. Suddenly, you hear the click of a switch, and the hum subsides, signifying the refrigerator entering its off-cycle. The quiet is briefly interrupted by the sound of a soft drip, likely the defrost cycle melting any accumulated ice. Then, the silence stretches on, indicating the period when the refrigerator is conserving energy. The tranquility is eventually broken by the click of a switch again. The hum returns, a bit louder this time as the refrigerator kicks back into its cooling cycle. The cycle repeats, creating a loop of a refrigerator's day-to-day operation, a constant balance of cooling and energy conservation. The hum, the quiet, the occasional drip - these are the sounds that make up the "Refrigerator Cycle".
