Steps in the making of street songs (6)
I believe the answer is:
stairs
'steps in' is the definition.
'stairs' can be an answer for 'steps' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'in' bit.
'street songs' is the wordplay.
'street' becomes 'st' (abbreviation).
'songs' becomes 'airs' (I've seen this before).
'st'+'airs'='STAIRS'
'the making of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stairs that I've seen before include "A flight of indoor steps" , "Series of steps" , "Means of ascent/descent" , "Flights of steps" , "Access consisting of steps" .)
