Back in Europe a year later, he remixed Gwen Guthrie's "Ain't Nothin' Going On But The Rent", then in 1990 Morgan teamed up with the classic Swedish house label Btech for a number of underground projects such as Technoir, Control E and Al Hambra. In 1991, he formed the act Clubland along with vocalist Zemya Hamilton and Btech owner Jan Ekholm.

This was followed up by the club no1s "Hold On", "Love Strain", "Set Me Free" and "Hypnotized", which established Clubland all over the world. The band worked with many of the top producers at the time including David Morales, Steve "Silk" Hurley, E-Smoove, Eric Kupper, StoneBridge and George Morel.
