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)
This track has a Bayesian average rating of 73.3/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.1/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.8.

Nope. Hearing animal noises for 11 minutes isn't exactly my idea of something fun to listen to
Builds a lot of suspense for the entire 11 minutes. Definitely not something for everyone; it either strikes your fancy or it doesn't.
Intricacies can be masterful
A little bit too long. nice idea and it makes animation 4 really good
