Record got nicer, having name that's unsettling (13)
I believe the answer is:
disconcerting
'record got nicer having name that's unsettling' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'record got nicer having name that's unsettling' is the wordplay.
'record' becomes 'disc' (eg a CD, compact disc).
'having' says to put letters next to each other.
'name' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation e.g. on forms).
'that's unsettling' is an anagram indicator.
'got'+'nicer'+'n'='gotnicern'
'gotnicern' is an anagram of 'oncerting'.
'disc'+'oncerting'='DISCONCERTING'
Can you help me to learn more?
