Rating metrics: Help 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 72.9/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

From Mercury 01/29/2021 17:53 in You must listen to the album below you: canon edition
1. I like Jaar's music generally, from the half dozen albums I've heard. Specifically though I love his more ambient or less dancy stuff like Psychic or Space Is Only Noise. I liked 2012-whenever (AAL's previous album) but I mostly forgot it until last year seeing this album was released. Now that…

I curiously put this on as background music not knowing what to expect and it really surprised me. Some of the transitions in the middle of the album made me stop what I was doing just to listen. Definitely plan to explore some of his other work.

Favorite songs: Alarm, If You Can't Do It Good Do It Hard, If Loving You is Wrong

I'm not the biggest fan of strictly electronic music but there are some songs that I found compelling. Most of the songs are dense and take some time to get to know.

One of the most interesting and exciting house albums of all time. This is my highest rated album since 2016. I would expect this to remain my 2020 AOTY unless a 10 drops this year (Kendrick maybe?). It's definitely not as accessible as 2012-2017, which maybe that's a good thing since A.A.L had a stigma of being house for people who aren't into house.

Not as good as the first one, and really top-heavy, but still awesome.

Pretty listenable. Nothing that shook me.
