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 74.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

There aren't too many standout tracks but that's really the only problem I can find with this album. It consistently sounds great and it has a very solid direction and the overall sound is very interesting, influential, and ahead of it's time.

Homework... so I guess the group had been doing their 'Homework' so to speak! Studying hard to become masters of the aural senses I presume. Good for them. Well... onto the music. To save time I'll direct you to 'Da Funk' and 'Around the World'. Both are basically a beat with a little something extra thrown on top. Slow and dozy beats. Get a laid back mood going. The rest... well it is pretty much the same all the way through. You're in for one of the longest 73-74 minutes of your life if try put this one on from beginning to end. It is also dreadfully plain. Just... plain It is hard to describe it all but I really don't want to make someone listen. You know what, go and buy any dance compilation from the shelf next time you go to the store. The chances are it will be like this but with one difference... it will be good and exciting. If you liked them already, this album might have some appeal. But 'Dance Dance Super Mix 7' doesn't have the brand name (Daft Punk) to get the clout required to get on so many charts. In fact, it appears it is so liked because some (although not everyone) believe that a liking of a dance collection would seriously injury their credentials. Seriously, it is like the "indie" kids have gone to the club and beaten the life from what ever had been playing! I'm done complaining. Just be very wary of spending your time on this one.

I can see the appeal of this one, but it's long and hard to sit through from end to end. They only got better from here.

Love how raw, chaotic and in your face this album is! Truly their best work and they never topped it. It's their most iconic sound. Phenomenal debut.

Great album. The only complaint I have is that it could've been shortened down with about 15 minutes.
