Pressure of Speech - "X-Beats"

I still need to confirm this but it appears that "X-Beats" was originally called "Aphelion" when it appeared on the Trance Europe Express 2 compilation album. This compilation album was released in May 1994 and an edited version of the Orbital remix of this track was hosted on there.

Then came the 12 inch which just added more confusion because it appears that the name now appears as "X-Beats" and the track is the 7 minute 53 seconds version.

The Pressure of Speech album came next without the Orbital modified version and the name of the track was called "XI-Beats"

For those who collect every version of Orbital remix then it appears there are two versions out there. Details are below:-
