Tino Christiansen, from Hamburg, Germany, started his musical career in 1996 playing guitar in a hardcore/metal combo with some friends (Kevin Hamann from clickclickDecker, J.P.Ladzenski from The Destiny Program) for 3 years. Several gigs, some recordings and releases with “Stained Ground” created the creative foundation for what was to come.
While working in public service he got in touch with playing drums and realized that rhythm and beats were of much bigger interest for him than harmonics. When studies and apprenticeships became important it was no longer possible to maintain the band. But creative musical hunger had been unleashed and another way to get satisfied had to be found.Starting with programs like ReBirth and SF Acid, he took his first steps into electronic music production, but buying a Yamaha RM1X Groovebox finally made up his mind. Breakbeats were essentially the first result, but soon he made first contact with the Psychedelic Trance scene. That was the time he met Stefan Witt (marke.eigenbau) and Arne Liedtke (Mantik). They made fast progress using Cubase VST5 and various midi-devices. “TriOptimum” was born, pumping progressive Psy-Trance. A lot of gigs in Northern Germany were performed and some releases at Headroom Records and an EP for the Greek label ZMA Records were made. A really inspiring time! In 2003-2004 the varying musical tastes of these three guys drove them more and more apart. Beginning as a side-project, “Morja” now took on more serious form, at the same time, the Psy-Trance era had come to an end.

From 2004-2008 Morja’s sound made some crazy mutations from technoid psystuff to shakin’ Electro-House to minimally influenced Tech-House. In 2009 he contributed two tracks to compilations at Planet BEN Records. Moving 2010 to Hamburg and changing his production setup he started to get his sound more in shape. In 2012 regulary releases coming on CTS Recordings and Phobo Records, reaching from Tech- to Minimal House, are the first steps for musical world domination – so stay tuned for the coming debut set which will be presented in early 2013!
