Trendy end to this music (5)
I believe the answer is:
indie
'this music' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'trendy end' is the wordplay.
'trendy' becomes 'in'.
'end' becomes 'die'.
'in'+'die'='INDIE'
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for indie that I've seen before include "Not a mainstream group" , "Specialist record company" , "Autonomous film co." , "type of record company" , "not linked to major label" .)
