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 is rated in the top 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 74.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.5.

“(1) This was a very good house album. Perfect for mid summer chill. Some of the vocals weren't spectacular but I can easily brush that aside since the whole thing is thoroughly enjoyable. It's more of a "this doesn't exactly fit here" feeling than "this is bad", for example the Panda Bearesque…”

From EyeKanFly 07/22/2021 16:06 in You must listen to the album below you: canon edition
“1) So I went into this completely blind, not even knowing the genre. The first couple minutes were some intricate guitar and sort of indie-ish vocals, and then the metal growling set in. So...metalcore I guess. Not usually my type of thing. That said, the technical guitar and drumming aspects were…”

“For Gowi: First off, I wholeheartedly second Mr. Fingers' Ammnesia. Even though it's a compilation of early 12" singles, it just contains some of the most soulful, most vital house music ever made. I don't know how much you're familiar with, but here are some things that you really ought to check…”

Lovely background music. I really don't know how much credit to give to these electronica DJs. I have a friend who is working on his Phd in music. He writes brilliant symphonies, is a master of piano, guitar and plays other instruments. Seems to me to require a lot more talent than sampling recordings .... that's just my humble opinion. Still, I like this album.
