Audacity Dub.
Jon and Vangelis wrote State of Independence in 1981. Donna Summer covered it in 1982. The Donna Summer version followed the same structure as the Jon and Vangelis original though there are a few differences in the number of bars between the sung sections. Donna Summer remixes were released in 1990 and 1996.
The Moodswings versions use the chords from the second half of the original song.

The radio edits are the same apart from the second one having a MLK (Martin Luther King) sample on it and a longer fade.
The Moodfood megamix is the same as the MLK but with just over 2 minutes extra spliced in between 1.02 and 3.14.
This 2 minutes works through the main theme a few times, has a vocal sample " there are 7 wonders of the world, you are about to witness the 8th". It breaks down to bass and drums and few other variations before reverting the same as the MLK mix.
The MLK mix uses an extended "I have a dream" voice over from Martin Luther King.
I assume that the original edit is an edited version of the original version.
I've no idea what the very original version is, but it's similar to the original edit. It has a few extra sounds on it, but I don't think these are particularly good.
The three remixes on the end of the CD2 are not any good really.
All versions have edits all over them. The radio single has some truncated backing vocals due to an edit.
The Audacity Dub is made from bits of the Original Edit and the Moodfood Megamix/MLK version.
