What's That Sound Wednesday?

Song: "Red"
Band: Phoria
Album: Bloodworks
Listen: http://www.phoriamusic.com/

So I was listening to my Songza the other day and this song came across my ear holes and I was just really put in a place of chill by it.  I don't consider myself a music know it all but I know what I like and this song really grabbed my ear for it's 6 minute duration.  It has a melodic piano in the background but as the song plays a form of electronics come into the scene showing it's going for a modern take on a classic sound.  Well enough of my chatter take a listen and I hope you enjoy.
