muso
English
Etymology
From musician + -o (“diminutive suffix”).
Pronunciation
Noun
muso (plural musos)
- (UK, Australia, informal) diminutive of musician.
- 2000 May 5, Justin French, “Heads up, Yes me again Mr m3a Smart mouth”, in alt.music.journalism[1] (Usenet):
- I don't expect you to understand the hours involved in becoming a talented muso, rehearsing for months, writing a hit, recording the song, marketing the band, pressing the CDs and trying to get airplay / make some record sales... but you should be able to find a similar problem in your work...
- 2001 March 27, Mr Q. Z. Diablo, “[long] will the real goth please stand up”, in aus.culture.gothic[3] (Usenet):
- Don't blame the musos. Blame the marketers, A&R men and record company execs. You don't imagine for a moment that musos sought to inflict Bardot, Britney and Christina on an unsuspecting public. Even the producers are only guilty of trying to feed themselves by attempting to write and execute popular songs that appeal to the LCD.
- 2018 October 5, Ben Beaumont-Thomas, Laura Snapes, “Has 10 years of Spotify ruined music?”, in The Guardian[4]:
- It is a badge of pride for musos to say that Spotify’s machine-learning algorithms – when you listen to a track and it recommends things you might also like – don’t cover their cosmopolitan taste.
