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 albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.9/100, a mean average of 78.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

Electronic with some hints of jazz and rock and of course it had inherited at bit from the Krautrock genre so many years ago? Their vintage crackled sounds are still there and so is the music which was also featured on the previous album Shrink. And relistening to this album just makes me realise how good they are also on this album.

A completely wonderful album from this German group that has Can influences running through its veins

Sadly not available on major streaming services which is a pity because an album this good deserves a wider audience. However it’s widely available on CD relatively cheaply or YouTube

An album that is most comparable to Give Up by The Postal Service, although I think that this has more potential to be a better album, with more complex sounds throughout the album.

Favorite Track: Pick Up the Phone

Fantastic record through and through. The sampling is flawless, and the rhythms are interesting and unique enough in each track to keep you listening. One of my favorites. Not sure why the rating is so low... The album has a 79/100 even though the lowest rated song is an 82...

One year on. I can't remember a single note from these album. Take that as a warning. Hell, I even can't remember what I was on about down there!

You know how you think you have gone into a room and forgot something? This album comes full circle when you think about it.
