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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.6.

I didn't expect to see 2013 winning, I usually see people talk shit on that year. It has some personal favorites for me from Rashad Becker, Olivia Block, and year bookend releases in January and December from Jar Moff. But if I was going to throw out one album with broader appeal to vouch for 2013,…

I'm a big nerd for electronic weirdness and that's what my top 5 all is 1. This album I found out about in 2014, I was late on it. I wasn't paying close enough attention to PAN records, but it turns out they're basically leading the way in innovative electronic music. This album has lots of weird…

It's good but can't really get into it fully. I think it's a bit try too hard type of affair. Will keep dipping into it.

A brilliant and inspired electronic masterpiece! Was really impressed with his 'Triangle Unfolds' track a few years back but didn't expect him to consistently impress over a whole album. Puts all other recent electronica releases firmly in the shade, so if you're a fan of this kind of crap just get it already :)
