Martin Molin (born 1983) is a Grammis (Swedish Grammy)-nominated composer[2], producer, multi-instrumentalist, inventor, self-taught engineer[3][4] and member of the (folktronica and post-rock) band Wintergatan, previously a member of Detektivbyrån.[5] He grew up at Kronoparken in Karlstad,[6] and lives in France.

Molin studied music at the Musikmakarna (Songwriters Academy) in Örnsköldsvik.[5] In 2005, he and his brother Anders Molin were inspired to start Detektivbyrån, after he heard La valse d'Amelie by Yann Tiersen.[7] The group disbanded in 2010.[8]

In 2011 Molin, Evelina Hägglund, Marcus Sjöberg and David Zandén created the band Wintergatan.[5] The group gained attention when, inspired by a visit to the Speelklok Museum, Molin built a music box called the "Marble Machine" made of 3000[9] components that played using 2000[10] metal balls.[5] After working on the machine for over 14 months[11], he released the video in 2016 and now has over 140 million views on Youtube.[12] He then announced the commencement of a new machine, named "Marble Machine X" that is robust enough to take on tour.[13] Molin has since documented the construction process on the band's Youtube channel called Wintergatan in a series called Wintergatan Wednesdays.[14]

In 2017 he presented a series "Music Machine Mondays" about the exhibits in the Dutch Speelklok Museum[15] and in 2020 will present a similar series about the collection at the German Siegfrieds Mechanischem Musikkabinett (Siegfrieds Mechanical Music Cabinet).[16]
