This can be tough, especially since you only have a recording of the song.
If you know someone with an iPhone, you can ask Siri to try to identify the song
You can download the app Shazam and use it to identify the song, though I'm not sure you can play audio off your phone and run the app at the same time. You can try singing/humming the tune with Shazam ...

Main theme from the TV show LOST
The music is from the main theme* of the TV show LOST. This main theme from the show is heard often throughout the show. It's heard, for example, in the track "Life & Death" from the LOST Official Soundtrack (it's especially clear that they're the same at 3 minutes into the video).

This song is called "Palabras." It is by Emanuel Hovaghimian, and was developed specially for the Russian cellphone company "Beeline," which sells it as a "answer waiting" music for cellphones. That's why it is not readily available in open resources. Fortunately it can now be heard here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjtDBB4SrNw

The wikipedia page for the Diablo II soundtrack indicates that the voices come from "Heart of Asia, Heart of Africa and Symphony of Voices" by Spectrasonics
A little more looking finds:
Heart of Asia
Heart of Africa 1
Heart of Africa 2
Symphony of Voices
Those pages list some of the sample sources, although to match specifically what is used in those ...

I can't tell you the recordings or performers, but I recognize the chants.
The first is the incipit (beginning) of the Introit Roráte caeli de super, "Drop down, ye heavens, from above" (Isaiah 45:8), sung during the pre-Christmas season.
The second sounds like a mash of two samples. I can't make out the first ("oooh"), but the second ("aaah") is a clip ...

This is Mendelssohn, Lieder ohne Worte, op. 53 no. 2 (a.k.a. "Song without Words" #20), compare youtube.

When I bought this album (back when it was new in the late 90s) I googled all the 'samples' hoping to find the groovy 60s underground films (and BBC interviews) that they were all lifted from. I couldn't find any. So, like Tivep, I was forced to conclude that the Propellerheads had invented them all. Awesome, yet somewhat disappointing. I really wanted to ...

According to Genius, that snippet of dialogue is taken from the 1983 hip-hop movie, Wild Style.

Based on information on whosampled.com
and this music website - (as translated by Google)
Dr. Peacock and Sefa's "This life is lost" samples a piano melody by Ludovico Einaudi, called Una Matina, from the 2004 recording of the same name.
maybe that's the connection ?

This is rapper Kendrick Lamar's ironically titled hit "HUMBLE" from the 2017 release DAMN.
You can discern the title lyric pretty clearly in the trailer, as well as the distinctive phrase
am to the pm, pm to the am
meaning "morning to evening, evening to morning"

The tune is very similar to the "Sailor's Hornpipe written by an unknown composer long before 1800, however it's been varied a little, presumably so that the composer of the cartoon music gets the royalties. This is a common practice in the film industry: the director wants a piece of music that's in the public domain, so the composer produces something ...

Jumping in - Black metal band Utarm playing together with Sadness of Saturn sample it at the beginning of "The Cumridden Plague". Kinda weird and scary.

It seems to me that they took a sample from the movie Virus (1999).
First at 3:26 of your link, it starts with this.
COMMUNICATION TERM...
Then, you can watch the whole scene here. They extracted the computer voice, switch some parts then accelerate it.
To me it says approximately :
SPECIES DESTRUCTIVE TO THE HARMFUL OF BODY NOXIOUS.

That video has a lot of different bits and pieces of the Gone With the Wind Soundtrack.
The opening is the main theme. You can find it in the Main Title track at roughly 0:37.

Maybe Urge Overkill's cover of Girl You'll Be a Woman Soon?
Just after he says "Girl", you'll have a similar but slower riff, with the same kind of guitar effects.
The song Atomic was released in 1979, and Urge Overkill's Girl You'll Be a Woman Soon in 1994. Unofficial sources suggest that Atomic riff is inspired by Neil Diamond original Girl You'll Be a ...

That's the principle theme of the fourth movement of Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No.9 in D minor, Opus 125, composed 1822-1824 and first performed in Vienna on 7 May 1824. One of the best-known works in common practice music, it is regarded by many critics and musicologists as one of Beethoven's greatest works and one of the supreme achievements in the ...

The sample before Empire is a voicemail from former Queensryche touring keyboardist Randy Gane to, presumably, Geoff Tate.
