    Music Genre

    Hi all!

    Could anyone please identify the Music genre of this documentary's soundtrack, starting at around 48:00? I copied the link at that time, so the video should start at the point: Fact or Fiction E04 Robin Hood - YouTube


    Thanks!

    I'm not too knowledgeable about music genres, but I think this type of music isn't well defined. Ambient would be the overarching theme, maybe something like Chillout. In my experience it's best to go by artist (i.e. find this artist and then get recommendations on similar ones) instead of genre, because the latter is unreliable.

    Thanks for the input.

    The artist is Guy Dagul -- a music composer for quite a few movies and Tv series. The problem is he can't be pinned down to one Genre.

    In the track in question, i hear Elven like whispers, chanting. I suspect it's Celtic, though i'm not sure

    A similar artist to Dagul is Eluvium. These are ambient and experimental artists. Their "genre" is defined by the pair of these two genres. And the most influential being Ambience.
