Mesh - Purple Haze?? -

This may possibly be the most confusing of all potential mislabels or non-mislabels. The very uplifting 2002/2003 track everyone seems especially attached to is commonly referred to as "Purple Haze" by Mesh. Discogs seems to agree, according to the track lengths. However, all the audio previews (Juno, Beatport, iTunes, Audiojelly) all disagree and they have Purple Haze as a darker progressive track, whereas Esthetic Visions is actually the uplifting track everyone seems to be attached to. The "real" Purple Haze is also a fantastic song, but for the sake of the purity of the artist's original intentions and future mix playlists, I honestly don't know which track is which.

Almost everyone by now has gone along with this potential mislabel, so call me confused. Although someone on this video also commented on this confusion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb6usLbPgGw

My sincere guess is that the song I just showed you above is actually called "Esthetic Visions" by Mesh.

From a literary standpoint, Esthetic Visions would go better with an uplifting track than Purple Haze. Purple Haze sounds fittingly enough for a darker sounding track. Can anyone clean this up, please? Any official word from Mesh himself, for instance? I know, wording this has been a total disaster, because it's so confusing. Any insights are appreciated.
