If I was going to take an album with the classic, thin 80's sound to it, what would be the best way of adding depth to it and making it sound a little bit more up to date?

If I was in your place, I wouldn't wanna remaster mastered tracks. I'd rather ask for the mix, depending on if it's available.

The old mastering was probably quite light so you might be able to get away with some more. If you want specific advice for mastering, search the forum for it

I think he means the way 80's mixes were intentionally overbright because after a long vinyl period, the high frequencies the CD allowed was just too much to pass on and then there were mixes with nothing but treble

I got told by a tutor at my college that snorting cocaine made your hearing more sensitive to bass frequencies and this was the reason the 80s albums by The Police were really bright. Could just be a myth though?
