De Migra's - Purperen Heide

Review by Chris Sewell

De Migra's latest album Purperen Heide is a mesmerizing collection of songs that showcase the band's unique sound and style. The album features a mix of traditional and modern folk music, with haunting melodies and poetic lyrics that transport the listener to the purple heathlands of the Netherlands.

The album opens with the title track, a slow and melancholic song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The haunting vocals and sparse instrumentation create a sense of longing and introspection that is carried throughout the entire album.

Tracks like "De Wolven" and "Verlangen" showcase the band's ability to blend traditional folk music with modern influences, creating a sound that is both timeless and contemporary. The use of traditional instruments like the accordion and fiddle, combined with modern production techniques, creates a unique and captivating sound that is truly De Migra's.
