Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 69.2/100, a mean average of 66.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

Tamikrest are known for being able to absorb influences into their sound without losing their heart. On Kidal, we hear elements of blues, old-school rock’n’roll and reggae, but every time the band’s vocals kick in, we’re drawn straight back into the deep of the Sahara.
Beautiful desert-blues. Especially "Manhouy Inerizhan" and "Adoutat Salilagh". Unfortunate that the security situation in the town of Kidal has been so terrible in recent years...

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
