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 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 75.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.1.

Still one of the most impressive electronic records of 2015. God's Mirrorball, 2703 BC and Ad are some of the most impressive songs ever. Being constructed by dub and ambient house, it's just like ear candy. And even though Lunar Caves is my least favorite track off the album, it's still an impressive track. It's a toss up between this, Caracal and the collaboration between Telepath and Vapperor as my favorite electronic album of 2015.
