Joyce: The Brazilian musical prodigy, a favorite of Antonio Carlos Jobim, enjoyed a stellar 1970s before her career was diverted by domestic political struggles and the disco era.

He talks to Joseph Stannard about his new twin release Lightwork/Nightwork. Invisible Jukebox: Radical punx and founders of London's Decolonize festival. Big Joanie take The Wire's mystery record test; Global Ear: Memories of a coastal town destroyed in 2011 by the Japanese tsunami live on through field recordings and songs in the hands of one of its former residents; One-page interviews with Backxwash, Andrew Poppy, Xhosa Cole and Camille Emaille.
