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 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.0.

If you're commenting about this album saying that it's just "noise" or "weird instrumentals," that's the entire point of ambient/noise music... you just aren't into the genre...

Honestly, I think this is about as accessible and melodic as ambient music gets. If you aren't a fan of most ambient music, this is probably one of the best albums for you. If you don't like this, I would honestly just avoid the genre.

Top stuff! Not so glitchy as to be distracting or attention-grabbing yet not so straight-forward to make repeat listens unrewarding.

Yew this is not in my wheel house at all, weird electronica instrumentals wire to wire. It sounds like space static set to “music “ . Seems many punters dig this scene & more power to you my friends but I’ll pass thanks.

My friend said "ugh! Sounds like it's underwater. I don't like it.". Ah...yeah, I thought, that's why I like it.
I went through a faze of falling asleep to this album every night.

Incredible. I didn't know that music like this could be so beautiful, or even that it could exist, until I heard this album.
