It's very hard to say which music tracks / styles are suitable for Nature programmes, because really, anything from quirky ambient, to dark/mysterious, to combat drums and more esoteric / experimental styles can be used in Nature shows and Wildlife shows. I've even heard some "Drum'n Bass" music used in a Nature programme. So here we've just gone by ear and ticked this option for those tracks that we felt could be good in a Nature- or Diving program / Underwater film. Actually, Under water film material is easier, because it tends to be floaty, ambient, dreamy and warm soundscapes.
