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 72.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

"All tracks previously unreleased except for the first, KKMJ, which is featured on Alpas: Beyond Reverb And Noise, a Filipina artist showcase Shoegaze compilation series.
Before Sweet Trip broke up in January 2022, Roby provided this compilation. Valerie and I then edited it down from 57 to 50 tracks for release.
A fan had made an unofficial Sweet Trip YouTube compilation album called Seen/Unseen, which featured unreleased demos from Roby's SoundCloud and officially released non-album tracks. It was quite popular and so It was agreed that we should release officially the unreleased tracks compiled with other demos and tracks finished and shelved for future release. We didn't think Roby would provide so many tracks. We hadn't even heard most. Many are jewels. Some are polished. Most are rough. The number and variety of genres covered with elegance is amazing.
Sweet Trip have achieved uncommon recognition and success in the past five years with their glitchy 2003 album velocity: design: comfort being widely recognized by a new generation of fans as thee seminal work bridging shoegaze and electronic music, with their more composed 2009 record You Will Never Know Why somehow becoming even more popular than VDC. We are eternally grateful that they reunited in 2020 to write and record a new album, A Tiny House, in Secret Speeches, Polar Equals, which we released in May, 2021.
Roby and Valerie are both unique super talents. Sweet Trip have ascended steadily and organically. They have always been very humble and reverent to their fans.
Seen/Unseen is a view to what may have come."

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 :(
