There were a bunch of (4?) fake "Minimal" mixes... are they the ones you're thinking of?

Retro.

No it was before any song was released. Maybe it was a fake from
erasure but i don't know if it was a joke or not.

Haha, I remember that! It was an Eurovision song!

Controversial opinion: Memory of the Future is the worst track on Elysium.

My eyes cried blood when I read that statement

Does anyone play the instrumental version of Elysium more than the standard version?

Thanks but it's not that song. It was rather a demo with more simple synth lines.
