A joke. Magnetic monopoles are conjectured subatomic particles. (Or have they found some yet? Don't really care.) And therefore can't 'refract' anything. Refraction being a property of bulk matter, much like temperature. Nor could they be fragmented. Ha ha.
The opening synth sound (which I think is lush and beautiful and just yummy), sounds very much like refracting monopole fragments would sound. If refraction had anything to do with sound. And if monopoles could refract. And assuming they exist.
