Hello everyone! I bought a heavyweight vinyl record, but I am curious as to what the difference is between this or just listening to the music on Spotify. I know recent records are digitally mixed.

There are a lot of variables here, when comparing the two. The differences come and go in many ways. The comments have covered most of them.
However, there is one circumstance where I do find a difference. Most of my record collection consists of original presses of RCA Victor “Stereophonic” LPs. These records have alot of reverb in many of the songs. Several studios would record bands and then have a concrete room with microphones and speakers in it to create reverb physically. When listing to the original LPs vs a digital source the sound stage and dynamic range is much better on the originals.
Like I said that is just one case. Finding originals in perfect condition is very difficult. Mine are from my parents and grandparents.
