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 is rated in the top 25% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 73.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.9.

16 tracks? Not sure why we're ranking the 1998 reissue of Telekon instead of the original 10 track release but whatever. A very interesting release, chilly dark synth vibes throughout. Some of the best songs are the non-album singles.

A silk hand to end an era.
Sounds a bit dated now but still a good record.
Another number one album and last at his peak, this has even more intricate use of keyboard overlaid sounds and contains great music.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
