As much as I like the Wonders of Life loop, it doesn't have that "Disney feeling" for me, since it isn't really Disney. Maybe that's because I never stood still long enough in the WoL pavillon to fully appreciate the background loop back then, but I mostly think it's "just" some New Age music that wasn't written with Disney in mind...
I enjoy listening to the individual artists featured in the loop though, great music

Having finally heard the loop over the weekend, I heard several pieces which I recognized from various Jane Austen adaptations (as well as playing in various music ensembles through high school and university). I know the one of the songs used in the background loop for The Land is a piece originally composed by Patrick Doyle for the 1995
Sense and Sensibility adapted by Emma Thompson and directed by Ang Lee.
As a massive Jane-ite (my love for Jane rivals my love of Disney), hearing those pieces transports me to regency England not WDW so I agree they don't have that "Disney feeling," elusive and subjective as that may be.
And yet, Tchaikovsky's famous 1812 Overture practically screams Disney to me thanks to year after year of hearing it in Illuminations. Which is a pretty obvious demonstration of elusive and subjective...
