I don't have anything in music, never mind a degree. Indeed, I am musically inept. If my writing is full of unexplained jargon, it is just bad writing that is all. I thought I had explained my terms, but if not, to hell with it - I'm not going back through all that again.
Some things are very subjective and would be difficult to explain without further jargon. For example, I would find 'dramatic' in the context of music production difficult to further articulate, because it is a feeling based on a range of devices, like the build up of instruments, stacatto chords, use of echo, melodramatic lyrics, sound effects and the like. See what I mean?
Khor's point about live performances is a good one. If the material works well live, there is not much excuse for expecting people to pay good money for a sloppy production.
