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 71.7/100, a mean average of 71.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.9.

Breakbeat classic. Nautilus is just straight up one of the greatest pieces of music ever recorded. Some people will tell you this is lift muzak. Tell them to go back to their simply red records. The drumming on this and his 2nd is fantastic which is why they are both classic sample recorfs. Nautilus being one of the most sampled of all time.
