Why is most everything remastered?


It's becoming more and more difficult to find what sound signature was originally meant by the artist. I have examples that sound terrible after remastering. I understand why it has to be this way, If and only it improves the original, if not... leave it alone!

That’s why I buy original analog from the 50s to the early 80s. Many times, once digitized, the tiny details that give music its nuance and soul are lost forever. Sat in on an Acoustic Sounds demo with Chad Kassem of original vs remastered vinyl. Apart from some cleaning up of the recording, the music lost its blackness and took on a grey hash and fine detail was smoothed over. They all thought this was great. I wasn’t convinced.
