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 65.1/100, a mean average of 61.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 61.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 22.2.

Jazz pianist virtuoso Brad Mehldou and multi-instrumentalist, composer, and electro wizard Mark Guiliana come together to form one of the most interesting projects in jazz and/or electronic music in recent years. At times mind-benignly psychedelic, and at others intricate yet relaxing (both courtesy of that magical sound of the Rhodes keyboard, and some fairly trippy spoken word overlays) "Taming the Dragon" is a wonderful sonic journey that treads into some welcome unexplored territory in the world of electronic jazz, only occasionally getting dangerously close to that beige lounge music one expects to hear in a hotel lobby; (such moments are the album's minority.) Flaws considered, Taming the Dragon remains a pleasantly entrancing experience
