This is a 2020 remix of electronic ambient/hard trance medley from 1999: “The Fall / The River” that originally appeared in the album “Psychic*: Belief” (2000).
As of 2020, I’m working on many projects, my own music, retro computer games (f.ex. a fantasy platform adventure!) and a rare book about my grandmother’s childhood in the 1930s Caribbean as an utopian settler. More about these later. Feel free to contact and mail!
*Psychic of Synchronic was my music artist name in the 1990s and early 2000s.
This is a non-commercial unofficial mix. Original song composed by Paul J. Smith and Leigh Harline, based on Frank Churchill‘s One Song.

Heartfully warm special thanks to Joonas, Hanne, Matti, Liis, Kriku, Sini (and little boys), to my loving parents and to all others who have supported my music this year and in the past years – it has given me strength and inspiration to work on this and other upcoming albums! Also thanks to Liis for suggesting the harmony multi-vocals :).
Update 23rd December 2016: here is the original acoustic 2011 live recording of “Tree of Love”.
1. Näin, näin valon ja pimeän mielessäin, mä ymmärrän Valon valitsen, se kenties vie meidät lähemmäs toisiamme Kunnes taas… taas, taas, taas Sen kaiken jälleen, joudun kokemaan… Pois luotain karkasit 2. Vain, vain sinä vain, sait mut itkemään ei kukaan kyyneliään, voi kätkeä Me istutamme puun ja varjoissa kuun voimme vain odottaa Joudun taas… taas, taas, taas Sen kaiken jälleen, jälleen kokemaan… Pois luotain karkasit 3. Anna, anna mun syleillä puuta ikuista, se mua lohduttaa Kerran, siemen alkoi itää mutta en voinut tietää turhaanko odotan Sua vielä kerran, syliini En koskaan päästäis’, luotain pois, milloinkaan Näetkö sen, jälkeen vuorovesien puun rakkauden joka vain kasvaa ainiaan
Daa-da-da-daa, daa-da-da-daa…
4. Tässä maailmassa huomisessa Täytyy mun päästää kaikesta surusta
Seuraathan mua, pimeimmäs’ yös’ yös’, yös’, yös’
Jossa ainoa, valo silmissäis’ on
Näetkö sen, jälkeen vuorovesien puun rakkauden joka vain kasvaa ainiaan
Daa-da-da-daa, daa-da-da-daa…
Jos mä kuolisin, kaiken jättäisin mut sua en milloinkaan – en milloinkaan – en milloinkaan En sua jättäisi kokonaan, kätken sut… kätken sut sydämeeni…
The title and the theme of this song derives and was inspired from the penguin short story in the Disney film The Three Caballeros (1944). I saw it first time on a VHS in the 1980s and got it as a gift one memorable Christmas. The animated short tells the story of a penguin living in the South Pole. He doesn’t appreciate the cold conditions at all and dreams of sun, warmth and palm trees. I totally relate to that :).
Also, the title refers to the cyber punk science fiction novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968) by Philip K. Dick, which the movie Blade Runner (1982) was based on.
Hope you enjoy this trance of the past! More to come, stay tuned.
Here’s my newest song – an electric guitar ballad: “The Lynx at My Home” (2016).

Here’s my newest song – a guitar ballad, called “Scorpion” (2016).
This is the first released song with my new artist name Avalkis. The track will be in the upcoming album Tree of Love – and Other Ballads from the Darkened Sun. Featuring f.ex. acoustic/electric guitar and piano ballads, celt and medieval inspired songs.
Thanks to Matti, Hanne and Onni for our recent live band sessions and jammings that inspired me to finish this song faster than I would have otherwise!
