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)

Nice build up and tempo shifts. The last five minutes of static noise are a bit too long though. Might be interesting to meditate to this.

Wondering why this track gets overlooked as much as it does... It creates a musical maelstrom of anticipation and paranoia the likes of which are rarely seen. This may be the finest cut from the album.

Freakin' awesome.
It's alright/decent.
