It’s a big world out there so there’s never a shortage of musical styles to draw upon for our weekly foray into global sounds and this week is no exception. We’re going to Brazil for a slice of modern day afrobeat, we take a trippy walk down memory lane with the king and queen of classic Cambodian psych rock, Roberta Flack turns us on to her take of the tune Angelitos Negroes from her debut album, plus new music from Mexico’s Natalia Lafourcade and a deep cut from The Wailers. 

Expected the unexpected on Radio M.
