Repopulate Mars returns with the latest instalment in its tastemaking Repopulate Stars compilation series, ‘Planet Rumba Vol. 3’, arriving November 6. Curated by label boss Lee Foss and longtime label associate TheConnect, the ten-track collection brings together a handpicked selection of international talent, building on a series that has taken on a life of its own over the years.
A year on from its previous edition, ‘Planet Rumba Vol. 3’ once again brings Latin American talent and influence to the fore, connecting regional sounds with the global underground. Amal Nemer, Panna (BR), Emmanuel Callejas, Yuli Builes, and more rub shoulders with an international roster that includes Sabrosura Boyz and TheConnect, bringing together cha-cha rhythms and percussion-led grooves that have become synonymous with the series.
With early backing from established names such as Mau P and Biscits, ‘Planet Rumba Vol. 3’ further highlights Lee Foss and TheConnect’s A&R instincts and their continued commitment to championing underground talent.
Repopulate Stars ‘Planet Rumba Vol. 3’ drops via Repopulate Mars on 6th November 2026.
