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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 75.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

I think the basement jaxx invented the house/club/IDM album replete with guest appearances and made it work like nobody before them. On royksopp's melody a.m. debut, they were at the opposite end of the spectrum, self-styling a textured electro-ambient rich in ideas but with not much energy. In 2009, amidst similar efforts by simian mobile disco and the new basement jaxx album, royksopp return melding the best of the all-star basement jaxx approach and their more low-key atmospheric approach. It makes for a split-personality feel at times from song-to-song, but I like the interspersed duality and the top songs on this album really hit hard. "the girl and the robot" is a great collaboration with robyn, "this must be it" is another very good collaboration on the female vocals template that even induces some grade school humor on "tricky tricky" ("is 6 afraid of 7? Cuz 7 8 9.")
Excellent electronic album! Contains Robyn and Karin Dreijer of The Knife on a couple songs. Upbeat and fun as hell. Easily one of the best electronic dance type albums ever.
Röyksopp's strength is in their collaborations. And this one features all my favorite Swedish songstresses: Robyn, Karin Dreijer Andersson, and Lykke Li!
I love this full album, because it has a good, happy mood and sounds great.
