Lys

Interestingly, I was surprised to find that Lys is a clear vinyl pressing – at least mine is. DGG released the Víkingur Ólaffsson Mozart… double album on a choice of standard black 180g vinyl, or on clear vinyl at a small premium. Given the opportunity to compare the two it would have been irresponsible not to, your reporter discovering a worthwhile difference between the two and a marked preference for the clear pressings. Does the fact that Lys appears to be pressed on clear vinyl as standard suggest that DGG might be moving in this direction for all their LP releases? Given the current purple patch their records are enjoying right now, that really would be the cherry on the icing on the cake!
