A decade later and I am still impressed by this outstanding piece of art. The world has changed so much since we first experienced this, but the beauty is still so beautiful. Thank you for being.
Same :O I still come back to this piece time and time again, Starmachione 2000 too, and it feels new and vibrant and bursting with energy each time. This music does something to my soul in a way nothing else really can
Can't forget how impressed that I heard this when I was still young. My mind just suddenly appears the melody of this amazing song when I almost fell asleep. And yes, I came back at 3am in the morning.
No one else in my family seems to enjoy music without lyrics, but the poetry in the rhythms here is just beautiful. It's the perfect song for a band named Wintergatan; I feel like I can see the stars moving across the sky every time I listen.
People who need vocals in their music to enjoy it are the most boring normies man. They don't even truly enjoy music. They use it as a form of socialization or self identifications. Like the old biker dudes who only listen to Metallica and ACDC etc. It's just a form of preserving their self image. Really annoys me.
Are you saying... That I lived 6 years, *SIX WHOLE YEARS,* not knowing about this amazing... I can't even call it a band, it's a _phenomenon._ I've seen it for the first time and I don't want to miss any video anymore. Edit: btw it's 8 years now. Holy hell, time flies. I'll edit again once MMX is finished
I do not know why, but this song brings back intense feelings of sadness, joy, and remembrance all at once, that you Wintergatan for bringing such a powerful track into this world
Each member of this band is playing like their lives depend on it, like they're rocking off against the devil himself. I cannot wait to see this band live, to see the world famous MMX. What an absolute tour de force performance!❤️❤️
I watch this with my father a lot when I was little. Watching it again after such a long time brought back fond memories. I'm not good at English so my sentences may not be accurate, but I hope I can convey my feelings. Thank you for the wonderful music.
I found this song while nursing my baby during his first days in this world. He is eight months old now and I still cry when I hear it. It's so heartfelt! Thank you for making this beautiful music!
So this guy can organize stuff, Can play all instruments, Can stitch, Can do animation, Can CAD, Can weld, Can make marble machine, Other things he can do we never saw. This is multi talent. People say I am multi talent but this guy is too much😅. Amazing guy. Am sure he got an amazing personality too.
@@hermishmer Well Evelina did have her child. So I guess the band itself is on a break while she takes care of her child. With her gone/on a break, I guess everyone just had things to do, so Martin decided to build the MMX. This is of course just my speculation though.
Just for fun try to spot all *7* non-electronic instruments played in this video? Don't cheat!...Watch & listen closely then check below :) With the electronic gear this is a magical combo called folktronica. Answers: Evelina plays lots of beautiful grand piano (spot it at 1:27, 1:43, 1:59, 2:06, 3:26, 3:40), there are two different glockenspiels (David is playing one just out of frame at 0:20 & 2:40 (3:15 shows it), then Martin from 0:53, 1:14 etc), lots of accordian as backing chord layers from the beginning (0:23, 0:36 etc) & melody (1:21, 1:45 etc), percussion on the table (0:44), drumkit throughout and the one-of-a-kind wind-up music box (0:02 & 2:25) which Evelina has to play at just the right speed. So for all those saying this is mostly electronic, just for interest it's close but there is more acoustic content than electronic with at least 2 to 3 of the 4 band members playing acoustically during most (but not all) of this and that's pretty impressive.
I've been following Wintergaten Wednesday since 2017. This music has inspired me. I shared an online concert of your music with my wife as a date one night. It was magical. She and I loved the atmosphere that was brought into our little apartment here in the Salt Lake Valley here in Utah, USA. When I get depressed or just feeling down, I hop online and listen to your music, usually on Pandora and sometimes youtube like now. I was excited to learn about Martin contacting SKF to learn about the products that we create there. I just want to express my gratitude for all your hard work and creativity on the music as well as the marble machines. And all your failures and successes with the marble machines. Much learning was done there. To me, there were no failures, but more learning opportunities were realized.
Here from the Bassnectar Remix, and I gotta say...HOLY COW, THE ORIGINAL WAS JUST AS AMAZING!!! EXTREMELY beautiful song you guys!! Checking out the rest of your songs!
@Maxwell Glendenning Yup, this isn't even exclusive to that moment either. I guess the way Martin says "Wintergatan Wednesdays" makes a lot more sense lol
@Maxwell Glendenning Thats correct Swedish spelling, thats "the milky way" But in English it looks better with the W which I guess is why they changed it...
How the heck does someone like multiple times? Every single time, I start crying uncontrollably.... I can't even find a word to describe how much this piece has inspired me... Wintergatan, you're legendary.
So many years later, this music still makes me tear up. Seeing our little dude on the bike being chased by dementors and then fighting back against his depression always gives me hope.
So this guy can organize stuff, Can play all instruments, Can stitch, Can do animation, Can CAD, Can weld, Can make marble machine, Other things he can do we never saw. This is multi talent. People say I am multi talent but this guy is too much😅. Amazing guy. Am sure he got an amazing personality too. Amazing group.
These are musicians... Real musicians ☺️ you can see it by their movement loosing themself in the beat... And of course hear it... Its just so smooth Great great work!
These guys are absolute proof that music doesn't require lyrics to be amazing. Don't get me wrong, i like some of the classical music, but they take modern music and classical, throw a couple machines together and create wonderous music
You guys write some of the most beautiful transitions and bridges to your prog rock. Im absolutely blown away. Been watching updates to the marble machine over the past couple of years then stumbled across this in 2020. I think you guys should give the band thing another go. The accordion, musicbox, bells harmonics, and synthesizer combo is unreal.. Wow Wintergatan wow.. Blessed Sweden.. Thank you.
Thank you. All of you. If any of you ever read this. Had someone told me a year ago, two years ago, that I would sit here and listen to this song as much as I do, and feeling the things I do, I would have called them crazy. For about 30 years that I can remember I have been listening to music dominated, defined by lyrics, despite being very much a more rhythmic person. Dominated by guitars in the same way, and steady rock/metal beats that plainly support with the little spice of some fill ins here and there. Very much in contrast to the variability in this piece alone. From the high pitches of the Glockenspiel to the zooming bass of the synths and bass drum, and everything in between... seeing the recordings of your live shows really makes me hope I can see this for real one day, your portfolio of songs, instruments and the way you play them is so far detached from what I ever have seen... and so close to what I always have dreamt of doing myself... This band is absolutely crazy in a most certainly positive way. Drawing in with so many details like this insane audible and visual drop at 3:25 - I did not see this coming, it blew me away when I first saw it, and the music takes me to different places to this day. Thank you for touching me in a way that this genre of music, if anything even ever came close to this, never could. You, all of you, are clearly gifted. And many things that I see and hear are things I wish for myself, the skills that you have, on and off stage, the dedication and the attention to detail.. did I mention the skills? Stay awesome and best wishes to all of you and your loved ones.
Summer bird.. It does feel free, and open, like flying through the sky for the first time. the fear? The excitement?? the exotic nature?! It's all there! Wintergatan! You have made yet another piece the world will love! Keep yourself in high hopes, to reach everyone's hearts! *Never* give up!
I think you feel that way because the style and the accordion used in this song which blends so well. I also like professor Layton though I didn't play the games :)
Not just weird songs, but unique ones. I have never ever heard anything similar to this. This gave me back memories I thought I was never going to retrieve. This made me actually happy, happier than I have ever been. This is the type of music which fills me with joy, so does any music that is unique, no matter how weird it sounds, something that is unique always sounds great in my ears.
All the times I've watched this video, I thought Martin introduced the band as "Marcus, Evelina, Octavid" and was confused why "Octavid" became "David" in the Victoriateatern credits. I just randomly realized he's actually saying "Marcus, Evelina, och David" - och means and in Swedish. That took me way to long to realize.
This feels like drifting peacefully in space, locking eyes with your best friend from a distance, and watching them fade away slowly... Gives me chills every time I hear this. Don't stop!
Your music is absolutely amazing. The creativity behind it all fills me with joy and hope for what people are truly capable of. Its audio artwork. Gorgeous to hear and see. Please, keep it up! Now if you'll excuse me, i have to listen to your art again :)
I don't know what it is about this song but it keeps making me tear up, it is so beautiful and I can listen to it over and over. Thank you for bringing something so wonderful to this world!
Bassnectar Red Rocks. But this footage literally brought a tear to my eye. A music box type instrument incorporation is phenomenal to this heavy melody
This song always fills me with an emotion I can't quite name. It brings back memories I lost a long time ago, back when I listened to Wintergatan often. Most of my childhood and teenage years are gone, just a blank space where that part of my life should be, but this song gives me the feeling there was a lot of happiness in there somewhere.
You know... being really serious here... i have never liked instrumental bands, i have tried to like them but they never caught me because the lyrics were missing in my brain but you guys, you are just awesome. I feel that the melody is the lyric itself and it gives me chills to listen your music and i must say that i freaking like it. So, from Chile in south america i say to you: congratulations guys, you have caught me and i'm looking forward for your work.
For me, you, Martin and your band Wintergatan are real heros. You helped me in my life, made me happy, inspired me. I keep coming back to these songs, even if it's the 9999th time I listen to them. I don't have the words to describe what your music is like, and can't thank you enough for what you did, the decisions you took.
To think I just thought Wintergatan was just a cool guy from some viral video with a cool gadget and a pretty song... But *this...* I rarely see such passion, along with the table reveal near the end was amazing.
I just love this song. I hadn't seen the video until recently and thought the bike was a nice touch. I commute to work every day via bicycle and whenever this, or any Wintergatan song, happens to play while riding, the ride just becomes wonderful, like I get lost in my own little world. Thanks everyone, so looking forward the the MMX and more beautiful music.
I see this band becoming a legend and go down in history. I'll be awaiting for the day when everyone on this Earth is singing your music. All the love from Canada!
Wow! I've been listening to your songs over and over again for the last hour and enjoying them so much. A dreamy sound of innocence... So beautiful. Love from Israel
Ребята - вы шикарны. Вы просто великолепны. Мультяшные заставки лишние, имхо. ТО, что вы творите на инструментах, это прекрасно. Просто в клипе нужно было показать, как вы в четвером ЭТО творите. Музыка просто улёт.
This cannot get any better. Marble Machine brought me here... Wintergatan is among my top favorites. Along with Steve Wonder and Sparks, Lucio Dalla ... Wintergatan is musical poetry without words. Increadibly beautiful
God this song makes me so happy. This came out when I was at the height of my depression i didnt think i was going to survive. Here I am, 8 years later, living a better life. Things may be bad, but hearing this reminds me things could be so much worse.
Glad to see you didn’t let the Dementors bring you down, I know it’s not easy myself and still have harder times (as many do), but being able to overcome them at all is an achievement in and of itself. From my buddy (in my pfp) and I, always know that you’re not alone in your fight, and always do your best to try to hold on to those that are understanding 💛💚
There is something special about you guys, but I can't figure it out. I love your work, every bit of it, it brings back happy memories which I thought I had forgotten for eternity. There is nothing I'd not do to bring back happy memories these days.
Discovered you guys thanks to the "Wintergatan Marble Machine" And I have to say. I am sad I didn't not know of you before hand. This is beautiful and very well crafted work.
Same here, I totally fell in love with their music :3 And I've watched the Musical Marble Machine video so many times and I still get anazed by it every time ^^
I was blown away 10 years ago. And I'm still blown away. When I was a kid I tried to imagine what music of the future would sound like. But it is impossible to do so, because the instruments aren't invented yet. The modulin IS one of those instruments. I knew immediately this was the future sound I was expecting as a child. Imagine 1000 years ago trying to imagine the sound of future music, it would be impossible because the instruments weren't invented yet. Saxophone, clarinets and modern brass instruments didn't exist let alone anything electric powered.
+Thomas Zaglaras Heh. I am Swedish myself and this is one of my favorite bands of all time. I had a discussion with a friend not that long about about the fact that I thought it was sad that so few people actually knew about Wintergatan and Detektivbyrån. Now it seems that the marble machine has gone viral and hopefully a lot more people will get to enjoy their music.
A decade later and I am still impressed by this outstanding piece of art. The world has changed so much since we first experienced this, but the beauty is still so beautiful. Thank you for being.

be prepared to wait . click the page. see what he up to lately. marble machine x is going to be insane
@@alienhivemind7121 yes. Yes it is.
Enjoy the journey 🙂
My first thought was i cant live without this song playin everyday and this was 5 yrs ago, time flies when ur having fun!
Same
I don't understand. How can a song rock this hard without a guitar?
when you have wintergatan, you dont need guitar
I think Apocalyptica or Van Canto rocks harder without guitars. this is more chill pop music
@Mxyui correction: when you have wintergatan, you don’t need anything but wintergatan
Feeling and soul
it's the drum, always the drum
Back when Martin actually slept at night instead of lying in bed thinking about how to make the marble machine better.
lol
When martin as a musician not an engineer.
Yes my dude just yes
Yeah lul
Definitely
This may be an odd comparison. But it sounds like Italians made an anime and this is the opening.
And it's played by swedes.
Chad Geary that’s actually perfect
Yeap its like combine between anime song style
a 'spaghetti eastern'?
ThePoohat B R I L L I A N T
I do not know why, but this song brings back intense feelings of sadness, joy, and remembrance all at once, that you Wintergatan for bringing such a powerful track into this world
I know why - it's 'cause I found this thanks to Destiny, before he turned into what he is now. I miss those times.
Agreed
Each member of this band is playing like their lives depend on it, like they're rocking off against the devil himself. I cannot wait to see this band live, to see the world famous MMX. What an absolute tour de force performance!❤️❤️
yea i think this video isn't the studio take they went with buddy lol
About that…
they are acting as if they are playing something really really good and important, which they apparently, are not.
Wow, such a beautiful and creative music! Found you from Marble Machine, and here you have a faithful fan!

I would hit the like button 1000 times if I could. I love you guys! Thank you for making this happen to me!
Did not expect to see you here :D Pleasant surprise ^^
It can’t.I think the band name in Swedish means , suck ass
@@tominoski2581 Haha, not exactly :-) Vintergatan is the Swedish name for the Milky Way galaxy.
Im sorry to break this to you but 1000 is an even number so you’d ended up not liking the video. How about 1001?
So this guy can organize stuff,
Can play all instruments,
Can stitch,
Can do animation,
Can CAD,
Can weld,
Can make marble machine,
Other things he can do we never saw.
This is multi talent. People say I am multi talent but this guy is too much😅. Amazing guy. Am sure he got an amazing personality too.
"Wanna be in a band with me?"
"Sure"
"Can you wait ten years while I make my marble machine?"
"sure"
Honestly though what happened to them?? Where did they go? What are they doing now?
@@hermishmer Well Evelina did have her child. So I guess the band itself is on a break while she takes care of her child. With her gone/on a break, I guess everyone just had things to do, so Martin decided to build the MMX.
This is of course just my speculation though.
They're pretty fine. They hang out weeks ago
@@hermishmer Evelina made her own ep. I think the other band members helped her producing it
Just for fun try to spot all *7* non-electronic instruments played in this video?
Don't cheat!...Watch & listen closely then check below :)
With the electronic gear this is a magical combo called folktronica.

haha how did I miss most of them?
Wintergatan did we miss any?
Awesome job too with your magical tracks, depth of work and creativity!!
Awesome that you wrote that
THE PIANO!!
That's what is lost during the live performance! It sounds a bit empty without the piano.
"What instrument do you play?"
"I play a mean music box solo if that is what you're asking"
What instrument you don't play? Or more like: is there anything you cannot use as an instrument? :D
"What instrument do you play?" "Yes".
xedemx mayonnaise. And horse radish.
Well he made this music box :)
Interesting description of the accordion!
I admire how they're all just dripping emotion, you know they love what they're doing

Thanks alot! Tomorrow we are putting new videos up aswell, check it out hope you like it...
Sure thing. :D
-and it's cool that you replied to me >~
im am litterally SUPER IMPRESSED!!!!

Other way around mate, Bassnectar made a remix of THIS song.
Absolute mind blow at 3:23

@Maxwell Glendenning Yup, this isn't even exclusive to that moment either. I guess the way Martin says "Wintergatan Wednesdays" makes a lot more sense lol
@Maxwell Glendenning Thats correct Swedish spelling, thats "the milky way"
But in English it looks better with the W which I guess is why they changed it...
HOLY SHIT THAT IS FUCKING AWESOME
they also changed it because of some copyright issue with another band called Vintergatan.
How the heck does someone like multiple times?
Every single time, I start crying uncontrollably....
I can't even find a word to describe how much this piece has inspired me...
Wintergatan, you're legendary.
This song some how touches the soul in unexpected ways.
Same here....happy tears 😘
yes
I weep for the beautiful music, or perhaps it's because I know I don't have 1/100 of this talent.
So many years later, this music still makes me tear up. Seeing our little dude on the bike being chased by dementors and then fighting back against his depression always gives me hope.
So this guy can organize stuff,

"Hope you like it."
(Listens to the song again for like the 50th time)
Did you like it?
This is probably the 20th time I heard this song and I probably have heard wintergatans marble machine about 50 times :)
Wtf, do you h8 this great piece of music?
😁
50 times would be an understatement for me. I got this album signed by the band.

"Yes."

OMG its true lmao, it feel like they actually play all of them, including a strange instrument i didn't even know
They need to use hurdy-gurdy! Would fit their sound so good!
@@Kazwell96 One person playing the hurdy-gurdy well enough sounds like a whole band.
Its so heart touching how everything is made fron scratch and how innocent is all their music i just can't handle so much tenderness 😢😢😢

This song actually captures how I feel when I'm biking.
the pokemon biking song does it for me
..for the first 10 minutes
esta es la unica canción que me calma

I read it fast and thought you said ”for when I’m bikining” I was all like ”What, is that even a verb?”
The nostalgia when you listen to it after all these years.
Summer bird.. It does feel free, and open, like flying through the sky for the first time.
the fear?
The excitement??
the exotic nature?!
It's all there!
Wintergatan! You have made yet another piece the world will love! Keep yourself in high hopes, to reach everyone's hearts!
*Never* give up!
Ain't much music out there that gives me Goosebumps anymore, Fantastic work
This is what happens when a man is interested in the technology of sound.

Think of what happened for Mark Mothersbaugh or Thomas Dolby. He's going places.
Love your music, performance and the animation with the cyclist looking his own fears.
DARN the music box version is spectacular.
Thank you for your existence
This has such a Professor Layton feel it's incredible.
I thought that too ..
+PolarPoop YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
I think you feel that way because the style and the accordion used in this song which blends so well. I also like professor Layton though I didn't play the games :)
I thought i was the only one.
It's always the nordic people coming up with the weird and cool songs. Sigur Ros, Royksopp, and now Vintergatan.
not to mention Adrian von Ziegler..
Not only weird and cool songs. Also the most mainstream songs you can think of. Check out Max Martin on Wikipedia.
Not just weird songs, but unique ones. I have never ever heard anything similar to this. This gave me back memories I thought I was never going to retrieve. This made me actually happy, happier than I have ever been. This is the type of music which fills me with joy, so does any music that is unique, no matter how weird it sounds, something that is unique always sounds great in my ears.
AnotherParfait He is Swiss.
Sweden is the largest exporter of music per capita in the world
All the times I've watched this video, I thought Martin introduced the band as "Marcus, Evelina, Octavid" and was confused why "Octavid" became "David" in the Victoriateatern credits.
I just randomly realized he's actually saying "Marcus, Evelina, och David" - och means and in Swedish. That took me way to long to realize.
that is hilarious! thanks for sharing! octavid is a pretty cool name, though...
Och det kan ju vara rätt svårt att förstå! /svensk
You're so amazing Wintergatan!
Please add ads because you deserve to get payed for this!
Much love from Australia!
I think he doesnt - need- the money. And wants us to enjoy his work without any ads popping up.
chiefmegadeth it's better to donate some direct to them. not some silly comercial. they have some on their website I think.
"Don't ever let the Dementors bring you down."
Это великолепно! Это какое-то волшебство! Эта музыка ассоциируется с зимой, метелью, горящим камином, пледом и глинтвейном❄
This feels like drifting peacefully in space, locking eyes with your best friend from a distance, and watching them fade away slowly... Gives me chills every time I hear this. Don't stop!
This song is a breath of fresh air.
What a delightful instrumental palette and such fresh-sounding music from some really fine musicians. Kudos to you all.
Your music is absolutely amazing. The creativity behind it all fills me with joy and hope for what people are truly capable of. Its audio artwork. Gorgeous to hear and see. Please, keep it up! Now if you'll excuse me, i have to listen to your art again :)

I don't know what it is about this song but it keeps making me tear up, it is so beautiful and I can listen to it over and over. Thank you for bringing something so wonderful to this world!
IKR, it never fails to make me cry...
Bassnectar Red Rocks. But this footage literally brought a tear to my eye. A music box type instrument incorporation is phenomenal to this heavy melody
This song has such an intensity, it's amazing and inspiring. Thank you.
This song always fills me with an emotion I can't quite name. It brings back memories I lost a long time ago, back when I listened to Wintergatan often. Most of my childhood and teenage years are gone, just a blank space where that part of my life should be, but this song gives me the feeling there was a lot of happiness in there somewhere.
I've watched this video many many times in the last 7 years, and I've never noticed the disc golf until now. Super cool!!
thats the most Swedish thing i've seen in a while
Sven!
As a swede, i take it as a compliment :)
Sven!
Sven!
Sven!
my god man my ears are crying tears of joy
Here we go full circle from the wonderful Marble Machine to this. Amazing. Thanks for being.
Almost 11 years and i still love this song. And it still makes me cry. Don't know why...
Because the Dementors be working hard at all of us..
You know... being really serious here... i have never liked instrumental bands, i have tried to like them but they never caught me because the lyrics were missing in my brain but you guys, you are just awesome. I feel that the melody is the lyric itself and it gives me chills to listen your music and i must say that i freaking like it. So, from Chile in south america i say to you: congratulations guys, you have caught me and i'm looking forward for your work.
For me, you, Martin and your band Wintergatan are real heros. You helped me in my life, made me happy, inspired me. I keep coming back to these songs, even if it's the 9999th time I listen to them. I don't have the words to describe what your music is like, and can't thank you enough for what you did, the decisions you took.
These people define the word "music"
Every time I hear this song, I can feel the love in the composition.
holy mother of goosebumps.
goosebumps had mothers?
Of course they do. If they didn't, they wouldn't be here at all!
yup. thats how I know when I run into good music.
Authentic sounds on authentic music.
I can't stop listening it.
Tack så mycket
To think I just thought Wintergatan was just a cool guy from some viral video with a cool gadget and a pretty song... But *this...* I rarely see such passion, along with the table reveal near the end was amazing.
I just love this song. I hadn't seen the video until recently and thought the bike was a nice touch. I commute to work every day via bicycle and whenever this, or any Wintergatan song, happens to play while riding, the ride just becomes wonderful, like I get lost in my own little world. Thanks everyone, so looking forward the the MMX and more beautiful music.
Such incredible musicians, love the concepts you have! would love to see you live at some point!
I see this band becoming a legend and go down in history. I'll be awaiting for the day when everyone on this Earth is singing your music. All the love from Canada!
+Francesca Jitterz (ChesSense) It's not really singing, it's instrumental. If anything people will be humming it
ahahah :D!
+Jonas Nyberg Acapella? :D
+Jonas Nyberg Yeah...?
I feel like aliens have watched this and been like, "maybe humans aren't so bad."
lol they arent human either dude
unless the alien has no sense of rhythm and thinks this is nonsense.
Haha wow that thought hit me too!
+Like Literally well... Ye
Sam Shields comment stolen...
Music is the only universal language in this world between people.that has got an heart
Wow! I've been listening to your songs over and over again for the last hour and enjoying them so much. A dreamy sound of innocence... So beautiful. Love from Israel
This is the kinda music that has me still with wonder, enraptured, and simultaneously makes me want to just Move, Spin Dance and be immersed.
I remember that our music teacher showed this to us and now Ive found it, its beautiful...
Ребята - вы шикарны. Вы просто великолепны. Мультяшные заставки лишние, имхо. ТО, что вы творите на инструментах, это прекрасно. Просто в клипе нужно было показать, как вы в четвером ЭТО творите. Музыка просто улёт.
Man! This is a master piece! I almost fell in tears! Great job!
Wait, You almost fell in tears? Were you crying then you almost fell or did you almost fall into a puddle of tears of some sort?
+Raven Flur both
i know i almost cried too.... sooo , beautiful
It's great, but tears?
Dwell deeper into music, you'll feel it
Discovered your band through the marble machine. You're amazing!
This cannot get any better. Marble Machine brought me here... Wintergatan is among my top favorites. Along with Steve Wonder and Sparks, Lucio Dalla ... Wintergatan is musical poetry without words. Increadibly beautiful
God this song makes me so happy. This came out when I was at the height of my depression i didnt think i was going to survive. Here I am, 8 years later, living a better life. Things may be bad, but hearing this reminds me things could be so much worse.
Glad to see you didn’t let the Dementors bring you down, I know it’s not easy myself and still have harder times (as many do), but being able to overcome them at all is an achievement in and of itself. From my buddy (in my pfp) and I, always know that you’re not alone in your fight, and always do your best to try to hold on to those that are understanding 💛💚
There is something special about you guys, but I can't figure it out. I love your work, every bit of it, it brings back happy memories which I thought I had forgotten for eternity. There is nothing I'd not do to bring back happy memories these days.
I'm back to listen to this song for the 1000-th time. Never gets old.
Where have you guys been my whole life? Where has this amazing composition been my whole life? Your music is amazing.
No matter how deep in my depression I get, hearing this song lifts my spirits. Absolutely enchanting and wonderful.
From Russia with love!
Your music is delightful!
Thank you!
You guys look like you have a lot of fun! Your music is so good I love it!
Discovered you guys thanks to the "Wintergatan Marble Machine"
And I have to say.
I am sad I didn't not know of you before hand. This is beautiful and very well crafted work.
Same here, I totally fell in love with their music :3
And I've watched the Musical Marble Machine video so many times and I still get anazed by it every time ^^
*amazed
I was blown away 10 years ago. And I'm still blown away. When I was a kid I tried to imagine what music of the future would sound like. But it is impossible to do so, because the instruments aren't invented yet. The modulin IS one of those instruments. I knew immediately this was the future sound I was expecting as a child.
Imagine 1000 years ago trying to imagine the sound of future music, it would be impossible because the instruments weren't invented yet. Saxophone, clarinets and modern brass instruments didn't exist let alone anything electric powered.
the most beautifull , creative, positive , artistic, quality and consistent chanel on all youtube
WHY IN ALL THAT IS HOLY HAS IT TAKEN ME THIS LONG TO LEARN ABOUT THIS. YOU ARE FANTASTIC.
+Thomas Zaglaras Heh. I am Swedish myself and this is one of my favorite bands of all time. I had a discussion with a friend not that long about about the fact that I thought it was sad that so few people actually knew about Wintergatan and Detektivbyrån. Now it seems that the marble machine has gone viral and hopefully a lot more people will get to enjoy their music.
The emotion in this music is amazing! Just pure love for the music they make!
You are unique, and as unique you deserve a music Oscar. Too much music is similar, yours is unique. Thank you so much
why have I only just found you guys, incredible.
Got here from the Marble Machine video - love you guys. Beautiful music! A new fan from Texas!
Почему нельзя вколпашить десять тысяч лайков этим талантливым шведам, а? Где, блин, справедливость?
I found this GENIUS ARTIST today, and I know that beyond all my better judgement I will be up all night binging video after video. OMG!!!
Love this band. Soooo much originality in their work. So much passion and nuances
