Yep, Martin from Wintergatan did the machine himself. He's actually building a new one called MarbleMachine X, and it's been almost 2 years now, and it's still not done. But he really enjoys doing it. Great reaction nevertheless.
Yeah been following the creation since episode 4 of the video. Gives of the DaVinci feel and I love it! It is also a great example of engineering process for.
why didn't i find this reaction video until now? great work chaps on the same awesome reaction i had when i first saw that original video, i'm a follower of wintergatan since that video came out more than 4 years ago 😁
This marble machine only worked this 1 time. Wintergatan has it in a shed basically, and he's currently building the marble machine x. It is a STUNNING piece of over engineering. Go check out his channel because he's almost done with the project, and its glorious
This machine was the prototype and only played once. I've been following Martin every Wednesday for the past 3yrs now watching him make The Marble Machine X. So close yet so far to finishing it. I can't wait for that day! but also dont want the journey to end.
@@HypeTrain-Follow To see Martins (and the bands) talent, you should react to one of the live performances of the full band Wintergatan. You can find some on the chanel. Very good is the full concert "live at victoriateatern" th-cam.com/video/GMuuLEF0a84/w-d-xo.html
Just imagine Martin with a welding rig and beautifully crafted metal parts made by all his collaborators.... then watch as he pulls out his angle-grinder!
@@HypeTrain-Follow this video is interesting in that the machine is indeed a musical sculpture but a mechanical failure. It could only play for 30 seconds without breaking. As mentioned this video is actually 27 takes spliced together over 3 months with repairs and such. The MMX will be a much more resilient instrument to hold together for a world tour.
Cardboard was also used to make that 1st machine. Check out Wintergatan Wednesdays to see the machine he is building for a world tour. He calls it MMX and it's made out of plywood, and different metals, and will be able to be taken apart to travel.
@@HypeTrain-Follow it was made of ply, not cardboard. Handmade. The new one MMX is a massive venture involving so many talented people who are assisting Martin.
You really need to check out his MMX series. If you thought this marble machine is amazing, the MMX is exponentially better. It's truly going to be one of the most impressive musical instruments in the world, ending up on a museum, right alongside all the other marvels. I'm actually one of his near 9000 patrons. I've never seen ANYONE on TH-cam have anywhere near close that many.
why didn't i find this reaction video until now? great work chaps on the same awesome reaction i had when i first saw that original video, i'm a follower of wintergatan since that video came out more than 4 years ago 😁
Would have never guessed that the two of you stumble across this piece of musical-engineering art..... Or to be more exact that somebody requests this. Cool thing right there 👍
It's authentic, but he says himself that it's far from good enough to give a live concert. So that's why he is building the improved the Marble Machine X, which will be good enough to go on a live worldtour. Main problem with this first machine is that it actually lost alot of marbles on the floor and also that it broke down every now and then. Still an awesome piece of art! :D
Music box comment spot on. Also in the rest of the vid the guy in the blue shirt is making some great associations, he is truly an engineer. Great reaction guys!
Was it me who requested that? I vaguely remember requesting somebody but it was a little while back now... so it may or may not have been? Lol. Either way thanks for checking it out! I was slack jawed my first time seeing that.
I know this is over a year later, but you guys should see the new version! It's not yet complete, but it's close, and it's 10x better than the one in this video!
After being so used to seeing the engineering marvel that is MarbleMachine X, seeing this machine makes me wonder how it is even holding together. Compared to the new machine, this machine is... like almost falling apart. To put it bluntly, compared to the new machine, this machine shown on this video is just a piece of junk... that somehow still manages to defy the laws of nature and play great music. That in itself is a kind of marvel.
What started as a novelty project for youtube has turned into The Marble Machine X; a masterpiece of art and engineering that the world didn't even realize it needed. The vision is so simple, but the complexity of it's execution is awe-inspiring. If Martin ever delivers on his promise of turning the Marble Machine into a fully-capable stage instrument (that won't destroy itself after 50,000 notes), it will undoubtedly change the way people think of music for decades to come.
please react to "Timelapse of the Future, A journey to the end of time" By MelodySheep, it's totally awesome also, do some reaction videos on "The Big Bang theory" :D
I watched that, and it had something like 300k views. I thought, "no *way,* this isn't even to 1,000,000? Luckily now it's much closer to what it deserves
@@easyidle123 yeah, ur so right, I saw it last summer, and I was like "jeez, this is the most beautifully animated, narrated youtube video about space i've ever seen
To understand Martin's inspiration, search up and react to "Animusic Pipe Dream". His goal was to do _in real life_ what that instrument did in animation.
Marblemashine 1 was outstanding!!! ❤️❤️❤️ No 2: Overloaded with technique, electronics, computer, loudspeakers, pickups, metal + people. Now it is exchangable + booring! 1 vs 2: Like „Jaws“ by Spielberg or „Rocky“ My Korg Kronos sounds better!!!
I also love that video, what an artist! I like how varied the videos are that you guys react to! ❤ Have you guys ever reacted to the Panic! At the Disco trilogy: - Say Amen (Saturday Night) - This Is Gospel - Emperor's New Clothes The vocals are simply amazing, and they're all so different. Absolutely worth the watch! Looking forward to your next reactions!
Nice to see MM getting some attention. Even with over one million subs Wintergatan channel got. I hardly see people talking about Marble Machine or even Marble Machine X..
You should subscribe to his Wintergatan channel for updates for his new machine Marble Machine X as well as his new Wintergatan 2 channel where he often uploads daily updates of his amazing progress. I definitely recommend subscribing to both of his channels as his work is truely brilliant!
Better late than never, mates. Love your honest reactions. Check out Martin's latest efforts to make a World Tour Marble Machine!: th-cam.com/video/1AEvQAg6TE0/w-d-xo.html EDIT: NEVAAR! NAUTEVINREAL!!!!
5:00 a quick check on his TH-cam channel would have not only proven it was real in 2019, but it would have also shown you in detail how it was made better since that video.
I was going to say I am currently just saw this and ironically I've been watching the marble machine X which is his second version that is much more highly integrated and he upgrades that he is done magnificently Outkast that machine in such a way shape and form that if you would go into his TH-cam now for the marble machine X it would merely blow you away how much not just engineering but design he's put inside of the second machine to merely outperform and beat his first one hands-down is insane
I so want to check out the channel but a part of me want's to wait and record a reaction seeing it in motion for the very first time when it's complete :) -Dave

he just added a motor for it as a govener to help his speed thing going its on 114 now
Since the first MMX video was released in January of 2017, it has been 3 years now.
Update: He's almost done with the Marble Machine X. He has to attach a few last parts and then it will be done.
Yeah been following the creation since episode 4 of the video. Gives of the DaVinci feel and I love it! It is also a great example of engineering process for.

Fun fact this marble machine is currently in a museum
Oh, thats cool! I never knew that
Izan TM big sad
@Euro thats the most random place of all of the places i could think
This marble machine only worked this 1 time. Wintergatan has it in a shed basically, and he's currently building the marble machine x. It is a STUNNING piece of over engineering. Go check out his channel because he's almost done with the project, and its glorious
The reality is that, due to renovations, the museum returned the machine to Martin and now he has it at his home and workshop in france...
This machine was the prototype and only played once. I've been following Martin every Wednesday for the past 3yrs now watching him make The Marble Machine X. So close yet so far to finishing it. I can't wait for that day! but also dont want the journey to end.
The chap is insanely talented! I'm sure he'll start a new project once this is finished 👍 keep you occupied for a while longer 😀-dave
I feel the same way! I’ve really enjoyed the journey... I can’t wait to see it live, but going to need to take the tissues

And he has built so many different music instruments!
the machine was played over 65 times to get the right takes for the music video
wait till they see Marble Machine X
You should see the Marble Machine X.....they’ve let Martin loose with a welding rig ;)
Lol 😂-dave
Yea the marble machine X is so many levels above this one. It’s truly unbelievable.
Just imagine Martin with a welding rig and beautifully crafted metal parts made by all his collaborators.... then watch as he pulls out his angle-grinder!
Wait til you get a load of what he's building now...
That music video took just over 3 months to make because this machine had a few problems
Really? Couldn't tell to be honest. Was a great watch though - dave

Get up to speed with the latest from Wintergatan Wednesdays... th-cam.com/video/b-nU21YgXTg/w-d-xo.html
HypeTrain Glad you’ve enjoyed the first MM video. I hope you’ll look out for a performance video which shows off the new MMX: it can’t be long now!
Excellent 😀👍 keep us posted when it releases - dave
"I wonder how many marbles he's got rolling around on the floor there" Quite a few, no clean floors here ;)
He has youtube series where he is building bigger and better one.
Thanx for letting it run
1:35 everyone's reaction on TH-cam.
Funny thing, the guy there apparently just found some schematics for gears and thought "Hey, I can make music with that!"
Cardboard was also used to make that 1st machine. Check out Wintergatan Wednesdays to see the machine he is building for a world tour. He calls it MMX and it's made out of plywood, and different metals, and will be able to be taken apart to travel.
Cardboard!? That's just crazy 😀lol. This guy is just pure talent - dave

You are impress to see this wate to see the mmx its gonna blow your mind !
Let me correct you.
You are impressed to see this? Wait until you see the MMX - Marble Machine X - It’s going to blow your mind!
Joshua Quick sorry my english is bad😂
Big flo 727 00 eh. Just needed a little fun, so I corrected some one. 😁
And he is Swedish. 😁👍😎
Music box comment spot on. Also in the rest of the vid the guy in the blue shirt is making some great associations, he is truly an engineer. Great reaction guys!
Do they know he is working on a new version? It's been a work in progress for 3 years now
yes looking good :)....kev
If you guys want to you can check out his other music instruments such as the modulin and the current WIP the merble machine x
I've seen this before and I think it's really amazing.
Rockin' that Warframe T-Shirt Kev ;)
😉 Well spied 👍... Kev
Made with cardboard too. Also check out Wintegaten Wednesday. Martin is building the MMX.
Was it me who requested that? I vaguely remember requesting somebody but it was a little while back now... so it may or may not have been? Lol. Either way thanks for checking it out! I was slack jawed my first time seeing that.
On reflection I think it may have been 'The Merkins' I requested a reaction to... still not 100% sure though lol.
It took him 4 years to build
No, it took him 16 months to build the marble machine.
What give people feeling of power
Money
Status
MUSIC
He is buliding a bigger one now!
You can see how he build it up on his YT channel
so we hear :) any idea when it will be finished roughly? -Dave
HypeTrain It will never be finished lmao, its a life long project
It will be finished around the same time as Project Binky.
I know this is over a year later, but you guys should see the new version! It's not yet complete, but it's close, and it's 10x better than the one in this video!
only human can make such an instrument.

the MMX is close to being done, he has a whole team making different parts now
check it out and spread the word
Vintergatan is the Swedish name for Milky way
please react to "Timelapse of the Future, A journey to the end of time" By MelodySheep, it's totally awesome
also, do some reaction videos on "The Big Bang theory" :D

By the way Wintergatan has greatly improved his machine over the last few years this video is multiple years old
Marble machine x is still not done after 3.5 years of work
I laughed when you said you saw no marbles on the floor.
🤩🤯 Einfach Genial 🤯🤩
Passion is where the art taste best
i love wintergatan and soon they will be on world tour with his new rebuilt machine
PS: Martin said this marble machine video took 1 month to make
Wacht the new videos from him.
He has a new machine build.
The perfect rebuild 👌🏻

What's really insane is how this machine was a one time use, where after this, he admits he couldn't really use it again.
I also love that video, what an artist! I like how varied the videos are that you guys react to! ❤ Have you guys ever reacted to the Panic! At the Disco trilogy:
- Say Amen (Saturday Night)
- This Is Gospel
- Emperor's New Clothes
The vocals are simply amazing, and they're all so different. Absolutely worth the watch! Looking forward to your next reactions!
You guys really have a lot of my "taste" good job 👍
He is almost done with the marble machine check him out

there;s a video where he reacts to covers of his machine, y'all should check it out
Now waiting for MMX
You guys are a couple years late and he has his own TH-cam Chanel making a second machine
Yes we know 😉... Kev
You should check Wintergatan channel, he is building a much better one and more bigger one
yes im sure we will cover it soon :) ......kev
Hey how about you guys react to the starmachine 2000 music box live
Thing if that hes making a better marble machine.
this is marvelous, untill you see the MMX
Mind-blowing mechanical wizard
#MarbleMachineX (the new one)
You should really check out the MMX these days! It’s 100% better! Really futuristic! Sounds better, much more quieter.
Locksmith freestyle on Kay slay
is that warframe shirt i see? tell me your in game name!, mine is GreyNell
Check MMX out. If your impressed with this version..... well worth t the watch..... all of the episodes......
check out marble matchine x
Chrck out the mmx
You are years late. The hype is gone now.
nah you would be suprised how many watch this and hes not stopped evolving :)
