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)

Just wonderful. The bassline is hypnotic. Surprised this doesn't get more airtime. 100/100
Timeless and addictive. This track is incredible and while people only seemed to have known the band for their song "Laid" yet the album with the same title is an overlooked madchester masterpiece. "Sometimes" alone proves just that along with "Say Something" and other moments in the LP.
Such an overlooked and underrated record and band. This is their best song. 10/10 from me and I don't give too many of those out.

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 :(
