LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ dPulse Recordings) - Following up the success of their collaboration on a version of the
Electric Light Orchestra classic 'Showdown' - which continues to ride Dance/Electronic sales charts worldwide (including 27 weeks at No 1 on the Ambient charts at retailer PlayItTonight.com - electronica veterans 3kStatic return with a new EP release featuring a new remix of 'Ma-Ma-Ma Belle'.

Composed by Jeff Lynne, both 'Showdown' and 'Ma-Ma-Ma Belle' appear on the Electric Light Orchestra album On The Third Day. Both tracks also appear on the P.
