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 73.3/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.3.

Avec cet album, on rentre dans le 21eme siècle.
Une cathédrale sonore.
Un petit faible pour les 2 instrumentaux.

Big fan of most of their work, but this one was very disappointing. No memorable songs off it for me.

What the fuck are they doing? I get that they were never really an electronica band, but rather covered soft rock and ballads in enough synth sounds to appear one (which is okay). But now they've really downgraded their electronic sounds to special effects on some tracks (which isn't okay).

And OH MY GOD leave the songwriting to others please.

The best album of Air by far. It has everything. Ambient, electro and just the perfect album to sit back relax and listen, while sipping your dram or doobie. Either way works perfectly.

A solid effort despite not being up to same standard as Moon Safari.

A solid album but, for me, inferior to Moon Safari.

How to define it? Brilliant
Full of emotions, an exploration of acoustic and digital instruments all in different layers. The better way to listen to 10,000 HZ, is to turn off the lights and turn your stereo on as loud as you want, you wont regret. Mixtures of electronic music, progressive rock, ambient, makes a journey easy to follow. Mellow, dark and passionate.
