Mastering engineer here. Remastered means that the audio has been modified to fit a different sonic aesthetic.
In general this means made louder, clearer and perhaps bassier, to make it sound “as good” as contemporary albums, as well as optimising it for contemporary consumer sound systems (which nowadays range from 5.1 kits with huge subwoofers, to a mono smartphone speaker).
It’s also an excuse to sell the same album again.
I’m not currently able to listen to the examples you’ve given, but I do believe it to be sometimes detrimental to change the aesthetic of a song and “take it out of it’s era”, because a cleaner or brighter mix might make it lose a lot of its charm.
It’s also worth noting that nowadays, the quality of remasters can vary a lot due to more (potentially less experienced) people using music-making software to create and upload their own.
Hope that helped!
The government did raise the retirement age.
Granted, the riots have made this an attractive talking point for candidates for the coming presidential election, but that’s about it.
Such riots may look amazingly violent to an outsider, but as a frenchman I don’t think we’ll get anything nice without going MUCH further than a day of planned (with the police), organised chaos in a designated street of Paris.
