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)

Not a fan of this genre of music but this isn't a bad listen. (Edited)

One of the few times where new music has borrowed the sound of an old genre and actually worked really bloody well.
Reminiscent of those pop soul/funk songs from the 70s that you think you know, yet also thoroughly new. The result? A contemporary dance masterpiece that never fails to please.
Despite its old origins, it's become a staple of the early-noughties and rightly so.
