Vinterriket is Swedish and Norwegian for "The Winter Realm."
Christoph was the owner of the label Neodawn Productions, which has shut down on March 1st, 2003.

Most of Vinterriket's releases are strictly limited edition and many have had numerous re-issues on various formats, the full details of which can be found on Vinterriket's homepage.

In late Summer 2004, Vinterriket joined Nocternity (Grc) (for whom he had already created two instrumental outro and intro tracks) as a permanent keyboard player.

Taken from the official website: "In 1997 and 1998 two rehearsal-tapes have been recorded but they've never been released at all. From 1998 to late 1999 the tracks for the first Demotape have been created."
