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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)

Grimes herself said about the track, "this track took like 100 hours just in terms of the actual engineering of this track, like making it not sound like a pile of mush but also still enough mush—because I wanted it to sound like roaring beasts". Well done, it does not sound muddy. But a perfect mix between chaos and great sound design. I like the guitar in the background, when it is a very futuristic sound in contrast.

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 :(
