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 72.6/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.2.

Definitely an artist I want to throw into rotation more. Absolutely love Rounds so I was excited for more Four Tet albums. Pause is still taking me a while to get into, it's super ambient compared to Rounds which is fine but I'm rarely in the mood for something that ambient. With that being said I haven't listened to anything else besides those two until this new one and I was quite blown away by it. Unique upbeat tracks mixed with beautiful ambient pieces. The first two tracks super drew me in and now I want to actually put his stuff into rotation more often like I've been meaning to. The video to track two is like a drone roller coaster, it's lovely. So after greatly appreciating this one I also listened to Pink and it was really cool too.
