In 2011 Molin, Evelina Hägglund, Marcus Sjöberg and David Zandén created the band Wintergatan.[4] The group gained attention when, inspired by a visit to the Speelklok Museum, Molin built his "Marble Machine", a music box made of 3000 components that played using 2000 metal balls.[4][9][10] After working on the machine for over 14 months,[11] he released a music video featuring the Marble Machine in 2016, which as of October 2024[update] has over 253 million views on YouTube.[12] He then started work on the "Marble Machine X", or "MMX", a more robust redesign of the machine with the aim of recording an album with it and taking it on a world tour.[13]

Molin documented the construction process of the "MMX" on the band's YouTube channel.[14] This at one point was called "Wintergatan Wednesdays" but lost the title when Molin experimented with new formats and release schedules. In January 2021, Molin started a new YouTube channel called "Wintergatan 2" with videos in the style of daily vlogs (as opposed to the intermittent videos on "Wintergatan") documenting the ongoing Marble Machine X build project in greater detail. A month later, Molin largely rolled the "Wintergatan 2" content back into the main Wintergatan channel.[15]

Molin eventually abandoned the MMX project, and on March 2, 2022, started a new designing process of a new Marble Machine 3, livestreaming whole CAD process on his Youtube channel. The comments to his YouTube posts at this time document widespread concern about both abandoning the MMX and the direction Molin was taking, including doubts that a finished marble machine would ever be delivered.
