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 71.9/100, a mean average of 71.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.0.

Definitely liked it more after repeat listening, but it's way too fragmented for me.

It just washed over me. There was very little that I felt I could engage with. Garden is a lovely piece.

Nicolas Jaar's works released under his name are more challenging and overall stronger than his Against All Logic project as witnessed herein. Cenizas is one of the most sonically interesting releases of the year.
